## Before you begin [#before-you-begin]

* Have a public Shopify or AliExpress product URL.
* [Connect a destination store](/help/stores/connect-shopify).
* Optionally create a workflow; otherwise you can choose **Skip Workflow**.

## Import one product [#import-one-product]

1. Open **Products** and use the store filter to select exactly one destination store.
2. Select **Import to Shopify**.
3. Optionally choose an **Import profile** to seed the destination, workflow,
   and import options for this run.
4. Choose **Product Links**, enter the product URL, then continue.
5. Review the link status. Remove any invalid link before continuing.
6. Review the import options, then choose **Start Workflow** and select a workflow, or choose **Skip Workflow**.
7. Review the confirmation and select **Confirm Import**.

## Expected result [#expected-result]

The product is added to the catalog and linked to the selected store. If you selected a workflow, its run starts after the import; otherwise, select the product later and use **Start Workflow**.
