How to Integrate Shopify Product Data into an External Java Web Application?

[Vihan Richard]

I’m working on a project where I need to integrate Shopify product data into an external Java web application. The goal is to fetch product listings, inventory, and pricing in real-time. I’ve been checking Shopify APIs, but I’m still figuring out the best approach to handle authentication and data sync efficiently.

Has anyone here integrated Shopify with Java before? Do I need to build a custom middleware, or are there existing tools that can help? Also, is it better to work with a Shopify development partner or a Shopify development company for long-term support?

Any guidance, code examples, or best practices would be really helpful.
