Why won't Shopify sales channel connect? It keeps saying "Something unexpected happened and we can’t connect to Shopify."

There are no current investigations regarding the error message you're experiencing, customcrafts.

As it's possible that the error is caused by a temporary browser issue, I can guide you through browser troubleshooting steps to help resolve it.

First, sign in to your QuickBooks Online (QBO) account through your browser's incognito mode. Here's how:

• Google Chrome: Ctrl + Shift + N
• Microsoft Edge: Ctrl + Shift + N
• Firefox: Ctrl + Shift + P
• Safari: Shift + ⌘ + N

After this, connect your Shopify sales channel once more. When entering your info for your sales channel, ensure that all information entered is accurate. For the detailed steps in connecting your Shopify sales channel, you can refer to this article: Connect a sales channel with Commerce in QuickBooks Online.

If this works, proceed to clear your browser's cache. This will help the program run optimally and avoid future issues. You can also use other devices and supported browsers to ensure everything works as expected.
