Shopify customize order export csv file

Question

I am trying to create a custom order export csv file from Shopify. I want customer id to be included in shopify-exported-csv-file for order.

If you don't mind running a bit of code/PHP, I have already done this.

This script you save to your desktop and then call it like so:

php ~/Desktop/shopify_to_csv.php 'SHOPIFY_KEY' 'SHOPIFY_PASSWORD' 'SHOPIFY_NAME'

• Login to your Shopify
• Create A New Private App
• Grant the new App "Read Access" to "Products, Variants & Collections"
• Copy API_KEY & Password & Store Name from your Shopify Account.

and that is what you will use in the above command line using my script. This will automatically convert special characters into HTML encoded references preventing any issue with using microsoft excel.

Note: Where ever you run this code it will create the csv named after your SHOPIFY_NAME.
