📋Before You Implement
  • Have your CJ-specific IDs ready before you begin: Enterprise ID, Action ID, and Tag ID. These are provided by your CJ Client Integration Engineering (CIE) team.
  • Ensure you have admin-level access to your Shopify store before starting.
  • Your unique tracking script must be copied directly from the CJ Network App within your Shopify Admin — do not use example code from screenshots.
  • CJ cannot provide legal guidance on privacy compliance. Consult your legal team for jurisdiction-specific requirements before configuring privacy settings.
