I haven't personally configured Zaraz on Shopify yet; however, here are a few notes that may help, based on past experiences setting up other tracking tools on Shopify:
- Shopify sites are "grey clouded :greycloud: " which means that they are not proxied through Cloudflare. As a result, Cloudflare can't automatically load Zaraz on the site. To use Zaraz, you'll need to load it on every page by adding the script tag as described here: https://developers.cloudflare.com/zaraz/advanced/domains-not-proxied/
- Zaraz, like GTM, doesn't automatically track events. You have to track the events by making zaraz.track() or zaraz.ecommerce() calls using client-side Javascript on the page. IIRC, Shopify allows you to create custom pixels that can listen for different events emitted by Shopify. These events bring over various information about the user/transactions. In your custom pixel code, you'll listen for these events and use the event data to fill out your zaraz.ecommerce() or zaraz.track() calls.
Hope that's helpful! Overall, I think the process for setting up Zaraz on Shopify is similar to GTM.

You can load Zaraz on domains that are not proxied through Cloudflare. However, you will need to create a separate domain, or subdomain, proxied by Cloudflare (also known as orange-clouded ↗ domains), and load the script from it:
