Course overview

Create an e‑commerce agent linked to orders and inventory to answer customer queries in real time. The practical covers environment setup, data integrations (Shopify/WooCommerce, PostgreSQL), orchestration with n8n and security checks.

This practical demonstrates exposing order and inventory data to a conversational agent so it can provide contextual customer responses.

You set up the environment and connect e‑commerce sources (Shopify or WooCommerce), a PostgreSQL store, and an AI engine (Claude) orchestrated with n8n.

Stepwise construction covers fetching orders, checking stock levels, applying business logic and formatting replies for the target channel (e.g., Slack).

The final checkpoint verifies access controls, data sync consistency and integration configuration to reduce operational risk.
