How to use Shopify Sidekick with Ego Cart Drawer?

Sidekick is Shopify’s AI assistant built into the Shopify admin. You can ask questions in everyday language, and Sidekick uses the connected apps and store data available to it to return relevant information.

Ego Cart Drawer for Sidekick brings key cart and performance data from Ego Cart Drawer into that experience. Once connected, you can ask about cart status, revenue, upsells, abandoned carts, which documents to read for a particular setup, then get a quick summary without navigating through the Ego Cart Drawer dashboard.

It works much like asking a teammate “how is my cart performing this week?”, “which cart is active right now?”, or “what is my abandonment rate?” instead of checking multiple reports manually.

Important note: This version is read-only. There are no action tools. Sidekick can only read your Ego Cart data and help documents to answer questions. It never creates, edits, approves, or pays anything.

With Ego Cart Drawer connected, Sidekick can answer questions such as:

• What was my cart revenue in the last 7 days?

• How many upsells were added to cart?

• What are my top-performing products?

• Summarize my abandoned cart performance.

• How do I set up a Rewards Bar?

• Which cart is currently active?

Sidekick can access selected information from Ego Cart Drawer, including:

Step 1: Have Ego Cart Drawer installed on your Shopify store.
Step 2: Enable Ego Cart Drawer in Sidekick settings.

Step 3: Input a question such as "How can I set up Ego cart drawer?" in Sidekick. Sidekick will ask you permission to use Ego Cart Drawer for this request. Click Yes and Submit.

Step 4: Sidekick will give you a summary answer based on the data it collects from the app as well as documents.

For better results, try to make your questions specific.

• Mention the metric you want to check
  Instead of asking “How is my cart doing?”, try “What was my cart revenue in the last 7 days?”

• Include a time period when asking about analytics
  For example: “How many cart orders did I get yesterday?” or “What was my cart abandonment rate in the last 30 days?”

• Ask for a summary when you want an overview
  For example: “Summarize my cart performance for the last 30 days.”

• Use feature names when looking for setup help
  For example: “How do I set up a Free Gift?” or “Find the guide for creating an upsell.”
