Shopify Admin API Mock Server

Storefront + admin API

Boot a local Shopify Admin replica for storefront and back-office development. Create products, place orders, and process fulfillments — Carbon persists shop state between requests so your commerce integration behaves like a real store.

Quickstart

npx carbon-api emulate --catalog shopify

Runs on http://localhost:8787 by default. No account, no signup.

Try it

Real HTTP against the local replica.

Create a product

curl -X POST http://localhost:8787/products \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -d '{"name":"example"}'

List them back (state persists)

curl http://localhost:8787/products

What's covered

Carbon compiles the entire spec — these are just the resources most integrations reach for first.

  • products
  • orders
  • customers
  • fulfillments

Under the hood

Everything Carbon gives you comes with this emulator — for free.

  • · Stateful CRUD — writes persist across requests.
  • · Snapshots — freeze and restore the whole world with one command.
  • · Chaos presets — inject latency, 5xx, and network errors on demand.
  • · Deterministic — the same requests produce the same responses in CI.
