Why this matters:
• You can display loyalty data anywhere in your storefront without making API calls
• Your theme and custom UI components can instantly access real-time loyalty attributes
• Your customer experience becomes smoother and faster
This guide walks you through enabling the integration, creating the event, and using metafields inside Shopify.

Step 4: **Configure the Event to Update Shopify Metafields**

In the event configuration screen:
1. Set Property → Customer is Updated
2. Set Destination → Shopify Metafield
3. Click Create to save the event
Once created, Nector will automatically push loyalty-related customer data—such as customer tier and coin balance—into Shopify customer metafields.
💡 Tip: This event triggers whenever customer data in Nector updates, keeping Shopify fully in sync.

Click on Create Event to start defining the event that will sync customer data.
