How do I export my emails to Shopify?
After designing your emails, Smart Emails generates the primary-language HTML for all eligible templates. Shopify requires the primary notification body to be installed manually, so each template must be copied and saved once in the corresponding Shopify notification. Step by step 1. Finish editing the primary-language design and click Export to Shopify. 2. Open Exports and select a template, such as Order Confirmation. 3. Click Copy code. 4. Open the Shopify destination shown by Smart Emails. 5. Replace the existing notification body with the copied HTML. 6. Save the notification in Shopify. 7. Return to Smart Emails and repeat this for every template you want to install. The paid plan unlocks all 52 supported templates. The free plan provides five templates for testing the complete workflow. After the export Once a primary template is installed, locale-specific Metafields and supported live settings can update without replacing that code. Adding or removing sections, changing their order, switching the base preset, or receiving a structural converter update requires a fresh primary export. Only export the primary language manually. When you add another language, Smart Emails enables that Shopify locale and automatically installs the translated email body for each primary template that is already installed. See What changes go live instantly? for the full list.
Understanding the Email Status Page
The Email Status page is a read-only overview of your Shopify notification setup. It compares the 52 supported templates with the languages created in Smart Emails. What the table shows - Template — the Smart Emails notification template - Installed — whether Smart Emails can identify its generated marker in the primary Shopify notification body - Language columns — whether a Smart Emails body_html translation exists for each secondary locale The page reads the current Shopify resources. It does not rely only on the editor's last save state. Missing primary installation Open Exports, copy the primary-language code for the template, paste it into the matching Shopify notification, and save it. Refresh Email Status afterwards. Missing language version Confirm that: 1. the primary template is installed 2. the language exists in Smart Emails 3. the Shopify locale is enabled and published 4. the translation synchronization has completed The Home page can show a synchronization prompt when installed templates are missing language versions. Outdated templates When generated HTML changes, Smart Emails marks affected content as outdated. The primary language requires a new manual export. Secondary-language bodies can be regenerated automatically after the updated primary structure is available. || Email Status verifies the email body. It does not confirm that the Shopify notification subject line has been translated.
