Sidekick and AI assistants
Sidekick can search your webhooks, explain their configuration, read invocation history and report stats - all read-only.
Shopify Sidekick can answer questions about your webhooks directly, without you opening the app. It is available wherever Sidekick is in your admin.
What you can ask
- "Do I have a webhook for my contact form?"
- "Is my n8n webhook enabled?"
- "How many times did my wallet reminder fire this week?"
- "Why did my last invocation fail?"
- "How do I call my contact form webhook from Python?"
- "What does my order webhook send to Flow?"
What Sidekick can see
Six read-only tools:
| Tool | Answers |
|---|---|
| search | Find or list your webhooks and whether each is enabled |
| webhook_details | The full configuration of one webhook, and exactly which fields it sends to Flow |
| history | Recent invocations, filterable by status, caller and time range |
| invocation_detail | Why one specific call failed - attempts, error, masked headers |
| how_to_invoke | The live URL plus ready-to-paste code for curl, fetch, Node, Python, Go, and guides for Make, Zapier and n8n |
| stats | Success rate, totals and busiest webhook over a period |
What it cannot do
- It cannot change anything. Every tool is read-only. Creating or editing a webhook happens in the app - Sidekick links you straight there.
- It never reveals your tokens. Code samples use a
<YOUR_TOKEN>placeholder; copy the real token from the webhook's page. - It does not return invocation payloads, which may contain customer data.
