Store dashboard
Once a store is connected, Lyna gives you a live dashboard for it under Settings, Connectors, Shopify, Dashboard. It reads directly from your store, so you can watch your catalog and sales without leaving the editor.
Store overview
The top of the dashboard shows your store identity (name, domain, owner) and your connection level, with quick links to open the Shopify admin or your storefront.
Below it, four tiles summarize your catalog and customers:
- Products in your store
- Collections
- Customers
- Orders
The numbers come straight from your store. On a Storefront connect the dashboard has no admin access, so it shows an upgrade prompt instead of catalog stats. If a permission is missing for one tile, only that tile is marked unavailable, never shown as a fake zero.
Sales
A sales strip shows your revenue and order count over the last 7, 30, or 90 days. It is built from the orders your store reports to Lyna.
Shopify only streams new orders after you connect, so history for a brand new connection fills in over time. While Lyna is still importing older orders, the totals are marked as partial rather than shown as complete. Nothing is ever estimated or made up.
Recent orders
A recent-orders card lists your latest orders with their status and total, so you can see activity at a glance and jump into the details when you need to.
Sale notifications
When a new order is placed or paid on your connected store, Lyna shows a live notification in the editor, so you know the moment you make a sale while you are building. The dashboard's recent orders and sales update alongside it.
Notifications only include a minimal summary (order name, total, and a shortened customer name). No sensitive customer data is pulled into the editor or the chat.
Keeping permissions up to date
As Lyna adds new Shopify capabilities, your app may need new access scopes. When that happens the dashboard shows a "New permissions available" banner.
To grant them on a Full access connection:
- Open the connect panel from the banner.
- Copy the updated access-scopes list.
- Paste it into your app's configuration in the Shopify Dev Dashboard, then release a new version.
- Reinstall or update the app on your store.
- Reconnect in Lyna.
Until you do, everything you already granted keeps working; only the newest features wait on the update.
Reading orders and customers can require Shopify's protected customer data approval on your own app for a production store. Development stores are exempt. If a read reports missing access, request those permissions in your app and reconnect.
Managing the connection
The dashboard's connection card is where you manage the link itself:
- Owner-only writes: restrict every store-changing action to the store owner while keeping reads open to collaborators. See Permissions.
- Granted scopes: review exactly what the connection can access.
- Storefront token: provision the public Storefront token if the connection does not have one yet.
- Reconnect: re-establish the connection (for example after updating scopes).
- Disconnect: remove Lyna's access to the store. This is a destructive action and asks for confirmation.
