As a Shopify store owner, you know that data is the key to growing your business. But accessing and analyzing that data can be a challenge.
In this guide, we’ll show you three ways to export your Shopify data to Excel, so you can make informed decisions and drive your business forward.
Export Shopify Data to Excel: 3 Methods
Method 1 – Coefficient: No-Code, Fully Automated
Coefficient is the fastest, easiest way to export Shopify data to Excel for technical and non-technical users alike.
Coefficientâs no-code interface makes it easy for anyone to safely get the data they need into their Connected Spreadsheet in a few clicks. This is particularly useful for Excel for Web users who do not have access to Power Query.
To install Coefficient, open Excel from your desktop or in Office Online.
Click âFileâ > âGet Add-insâ > âMore Add-Ins.â
Type âCoefficientâ in the search bar and click âAdd.â
A pop-up will open up. Follow the prompts to complete the installation.
Once finished, you will see a âCoefficientâ tab at the top navigation bar.
Click âOpen Sidebarâ to launch Coefficient.
Select âImport fromâŚâ
Scroll down until you see Shopify and click âConnect.â
Follow the prompts to authorize Coefficient to access your Shopify account.
Enter your âShopify Store Nameâ and click âAuthorize.â

After connecting, return to Shopify from the Coefficient menu âImport FromâŚâ > âShopifyâ > âFrom Objects & Fields.â

Customize your import by adding filter(s). Click âImportâ when youâre finished.
Your Shopify data will automatically populate your Excel spreadsheet in a few seconds!
You can also set up automatic data updates to schedule data syncs between Shopify and Excel. Choose whether to run daily, hourly, or weekly automatic data updates.
