Overview

Embed the live shopping channel, open a specific show, and track live interactions.

Live shopping is a separate embed from shoppable video widgets. Use it to render the channel page (hero, live now, upcoming, past) or to open a single live show.

Goal	Page
Embed the full channel, or split it into modular sections	Channel page layout
Open one show from a button or a shared URL	Launch a live stream
Track play, chat, cart, and other live interactions	Custom events
Attribute orders from a live show	Order tracking
Embed the channel in a mobile app	Live Shopping Channel (SDK)

On non-Shopify or headless storefronts, set window.videowiseInfo before the channel script runs — at least shop and cartType (plus currency recommended). If Shopify Ajax should hit *.myshopify.com instead of the current page origin, also set forceDomain: true on that object. See Required videowiseInfo and Custom platforms.

For multi-host shops, set window.videowiseInfo.vwHostOwnerId (or ?vwHostOwnerId=) so the channel lists only that host’s active and past shows. See Filter shows by host.

The order tracking flow attributes checkouts to a live session via the reeview_lsid cookie. Install the storefront pixel once — see Order tracking pixel.
