Here’s the quickest way to check recent sales in Shopify Sidekick : open Sidekick in your Shopify admin and ask a sales question in plain language, like “show me recent sales” or “what were my sales in the last 7 days.” Sidekick is designed to answer ecommerce questions and support sales analysis, inventory, and other merchant tasks.

What to ask

Use specific prompts so Sidekick can return a useful sales snapshot:

  • “Show recent sales.”
  • “What were sales yesterday?”
  • “Compare sales this week vs. last week.”
  • “List top-selling products in the last 30 days.”

Sidekick is described as helping merchants with guidance and analysis, and Shopify’s recent Sidekick materials specifically mention sales analysis prompts.

What to look for

When Sidekick responds, check for:

  • Date range.
  • Gross sales or net sales.
  • Top products.
  • Changes versus a prior period.

If you want a fuller view, follow up with a narrower request like “break that down by product” or “show only online store sales.” That matches the way Shopify positions Sidekick for quick ecommerce analysis.

Example

A good starting prompt is:

“How did my sales perform in the last 7 days, and which products drove the most revenue?”

That kind of prompt is aligned with Sidekick’s sales-analysis use case and usually gives a more actionable answer than a vague request.

Note

If you meant a different “Sidekick” app or product, the steps may differ, since several unrelated products use that name.
