How to export your Stocky data before the August 31 shutdown

A free, no-nonsense checklist for Shopify POS merchants. Do the export part today — it costs nothing and it's the only step you can't undo later.

Stocky & its APIs stop working on August 31, 2026

Shopify is retiring Stocky, the inventory and purchase-order app bundled with POS Pro. After August 31, 2026 the app and its data APIs stop working, and anything you haven't exported is gone. This guide covers what to export, what Stocky can't export, and how to keep the data that matters.

The catch most guides miss: Stocky can export your purchase-order history, stocktakes, and inventory reports as CSV — but it cannot export your supplier records (vendor list, per-item cost history, ordering rules). That information only survives if you save the reports that reference it before the shutdown.

1. Export these reports today (5 minutes)

In your Shopify admin: Apps → Stocky → Reports. Export each of these as CSV:

ReportWhy it matters
Purchase order history (with line items)The only record of what you paid each supplier, per item, over time. This is what lets you rebuild your cost history and vendor list later.
Stock on handYour current inventory levels — the starting point for any new system.
Sales report (last 3+ months)Sales velocity, which drives reorder points and forecasting.

Keep the files somewhere safe (not just in Downloads). Even if you don't do anything else, having these three CSVs means nothing is truly lost.

2. Decide what to move to

You have two broad paths: a full inventory app (several exist, priced roughly $29–249/month depending on features like forecasting), or a lightweight spreadsheet if you mainly need cost history and reorder guidance. Whichever you pick, you'll need the CSVs from step 1 to bring your history across.

3. Rebuild your supplier catalog and cost history

Because Stocky won't hand you a supplier export, the vendor list and cost history have to be reconstructed from your purchase-order line items. You can do this by hand in a spreadsheet — group PO lines by supplier, track the unit cost each time you bought an item — or use a tool that does it for you.

That's the tool we built. The Stocky Rescue Kit takes the three CSVs above and reconstructs your supplier catalog and per-item cost history (with the cheapest current supplier) from your purchase-order line items — no Chrome extension or API key needed — plus a reorder plan from your sales velocity, into one Excel workbook. (Supplier lead times are included when your export contains received dates; not every export does.) Everything runs in your browser; your files are never uploaded.

Frequently asked

Can I really not export suppliers from Stocky? Not directly — there's no supplier export in the app. The data is recoverable from PO history, which is why saving that CSV now is the important step.

Is it too late after August 31? If you've saved the CSVs, no — you can rebuild from them any time. If you haven't and the APIs are down, the data is gone. Export first, decide later.

Do I have to buy anything? No. The export steps above are free and are the part that's time-sensitive. Tools (including ours) just save you the manual rebuild.
