We are trying to use rudderstack for our product in personalization space, targetting shopify based business for now. It is a B2B offering and I have the following questions. 1. Should I create a single account in rudderstack control plane and multiple sources and destination (one for each business) or multiple rudderstack accounts, one for each business. 2. Can I automate the source and destination creation? Are there rudderstack API that I integrate in my process that can be used to create sources and destinations as soon as a business signs up for our product. 3. How can I install rudderstack app for shopify without requiring our business customers to install yet another app on their shopify website. 4. All I am trying to do is to enhance the business onboaring experience and not requring them oru our team to follow multiple steps and 3rd party app installation (rudderstack in this case) we have our own shopify app. Thank you.

Hi @incalculable-planet-4733, can you please ask this question in #support? I can answer some of these questions but other people need to pitch in to answer it completely. And support gets the best visibility for product related questions here
1. Create separate accounts 2. You can use RudderStack terraform providers for automating source/destination. But note, only a subset of source/destination is supported 3. You may integrate RudderStack javascript sdk in your app that users install

Hi @gentle-petabyte-80785 - Thank you for answering some of my questions. I have this raised in support too. 1. If the new account for each business is recommended, can it be automated too. As the businesses are onboarded on our product and we would like to be able to create the account automatically. 2. I will go through the terraform providers. I am assuming that it will work for RudderStack cloud too. 3. Sure. That's what I was thinking too. I have one follow up on this - Will I still get all the data and events that I will get after installing RudderStack Shopify app? Is the app just about adding the script or it also subscribes to webhooks and has more capabilities that standalone RudderStack js sdk might not have?
