Description:
Customers want to report on revenue from Shopify's agentic commerce channels: orders placed through AI agents such as ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, Google AI Mode and Gemini via Shopify Agentic Storefronts. Shopify's admin now reports AI-channel orders, but Polar has no way to isolate this revenue.
Current gap:
  • Agentic orders do not appear as a distinct value in Polar's Order Sales Channel dimension, so customers can't build a custom metric or view to break out agentic sales. (We confirmed this doesn't work; it's not yet known whether Shopify's AI-channel tag isn't ingested or isn't mapped.)
  • ChatGPT purchases hand off to the merchant's own Online Store checkout, so a sales-channel field wouldn't capture those orders. They could only be identified through attribution (chatgpt.com referrer / UTM).
What's needed:
  1. Ingest and expose Shopify's agentic / AI-channel attribution on orders (e.g. as a sales channel or a dedicated dimension).
  2. A ready-made "Agentic Sales" or AI-channel revenue metric/breakdown.
  3. Pixel/attribution handling for AI-assistant referral traffic (ChatGPT, Perplexity, etc.) so handoff orders can be attributed to AI channels.
First requested by SAMA Labs (agency), Pylon #12250.
