Requirements
Prepare Shopify, Windows, TallyPrime, and network access before pairing.
Shopify
- A Shopify store where you can install and authorize Tally Connect.
- An approved Tally Connect subscription for new sync work, with its matching Shopify store tier and billing cycle reviewed. The Windows connector is included; see Plans and billing.
- Product write access if you plan to create or update Shopify products from Tally.
- At least one active Shopify location for inventory mapping.
Windows computer
- Windows 10 or Windows 11.
- The same signed-in Windows user must run TallyPrime, install the Agent, and own the scheduled Agent task.
- Permission to install the official signed Tally Connect package.
- No Node.js, Git, npm, .NET, or developer SDK is required.
TallyPrime
- A supported, release-tested TallyPrime family.
- The intended company loaded before discovery or sync.
- HTTP/XML access enabled locally at
http://127.0.0.1:9000. - Required ledgers, units, godown, and Stock Items created before mapping.
Single-godown inventory limit
Automatic inventory currently requires exactly one confirmed Shopify-location mapping to the one godown proven by the latest successful Tally master discovery. Multi-godown automatic inventory is not supported.
Network
The Windows computer needs outbound HTTPS access to the Tally Connect cloud. Do not open port 9000 on your router or firewall. The Agent makes all cloud connections outbound and uses port 9000 only through the local loopback address.
Before you begin
- Back up the intended Tally company.
- Create or identify a disposable company for the ₹1 voucher test.
- Confirm the company name, GUID, state, and GSTIN are correct in TallyPrime.
- Keep TallyPrime open during pairing and discovery.
Agent version
The current application requires Agent 0.5.0 or newer for Tally writes and 0.5.1 or newer for Shopify order and refund delivery details. An older Agent may still complete compatible reads. See Agent versions and compatibility before starting live workflows.
