LimeLM Integration with SAAS Shop SolutionAnswered

Good evening,

I am looking for a licensing solution in my .Net application in combination with a hosted online store and for the one part I came across LimeLM, for the other part I came across shopify.com and I was wondering whether LimeLM already does or will in the future support 'hosted' shops like e.g. shopify.com natively? I certainly could create a man-in-the-middle web application that utilizes shopify API and LimeLM ones but that seems excessive for my one app as they could speak natively with each other directly.

Is support for e.g. shopify planned in LimeLM to make the overall process of purchasing & getting the corresponding, personalized license automatically?

All the best,-Jg B.

Shopify e.g. also webhooks / callbacks, as detailed here: http://wiki.shopify.com/WebHook

Hey Jg,

Is support for e.g. shopify planned in LimeLM to make the overall process of purchasing & getting the corresponding, personalized license automatically?

The short answer, is yes you can do it using a simple script on your web server that makes use of the LimeLM web API. Unfortunately we can't host these scripts for you (for a variety of security reasons), and Shopify doesn't host scripts either.

We have been thinking about making a full Shopify integration example. We already have a fully built PayPal example that you can just edit a couple variables (price, product name, etc.) and put it on your website and it will automate the whole order process. That is, when a customer purchases your app using the PayPal example the product key is immediately generated and emailed to the user when their order has processed. You can download the PayPal example on your API page if you're already a LimeLM user.

We can build a similar example showing how to using Shopify API and LimeLM web API together to automate the whole process. Do you want this? Also, what language will you be using on your webserver (PHP, ASP.NET, Ruby, etc.)?

Hello there Sam,

thanks for the quick reply! Maybe I was a tad too quick yesterday asking the Q. I did a little more research and I think I might go with either avangate.com or cleverbridge for the actual payment solution and for both I can upload bulk lists of license numbers, so this should work fine if I used LimeLM.

So I particularly don't need a shopify example, but thanks for the offer!

All the best,-Jg B.

My pleasure. If you have any other questions we'll be glad to help.

Sorry to resurrect this, but I'm moving my cart to Shopify and would love some code to do this on Shopify. 

Answer

We don't have pre-written code specifically for Shopify. But our examples should cover all of the many, many, payment options out there.
