Behind-the-scenes of your BFCM 2021 Notebook
As long as data has been around, there have been multiple ways to visualize and interpret it. One of the most powerful and flexible ways is through a query language. A query language allows you to request and retrieve specific data from a large set of data.
We’re building ShopifyQL to be the intelligent query language for commerce. Built with commerce in mind, ShopifyQL includes specific and smart syntax (sales during BFCM, anyone?) to help merchants get to insights faster, and with minimal lift.
Notebooks is the visual companion of ShopifyQL. It is a tool that will allow you to dive deeper into your data to tell a sequential story about your entrepreneurial journey. Think of the Notebook as a notepad and ShopifyQL as the language to write your own data story. A scroll through your BFCM 2021 Notebook gives you an overview of how your business did during BFCM on various dimensions and metrics, with ample opportunities to dive deep and explore further.
This BFCM edition is a sneak peek into what's ahead. ShopifyQL Notebooks is coming to Shopify in 2022 and we can't wait for you to build your own data stories.
