Each campaign gets judged inside its own platform. A Meta campaign can look weak on its own and still drive 40% of your Google conversions. You cannot see that from inside Meta.

How Shopify and Slack records line up
Shopify and Slack share no customer or visit identifier. askotter puts them on one timeline instead, so a change in Shopify orders can be read against what Slack recorded in the same hours.
What campaign optimization uses from each
Campaign optimization needs cost on one side and outcome on the other.
From Shopify that means revenue per order tagged to its landing-page campaign. From Slack it means campaign launch messages.
These two tools hold no shared customer identifier, so per-customer answers need a third connected tool that each side can match, such as GA4 or your CRM. Daily totals work with these two alone.
Slack is on the integration roadmap, so the matching described here starts when that connector ships.
What each tool sees on its ownShow less
Shopify on its own
Shopify sees the order and the landing page. It has no view of the ad impressions, emails or searches that came before that session.
Timing. Shopify writes each order the moment it is placed, including the landing page and referring site of the session that bought.
Access. Read-only access through the Shopify Admin API, approved from the store admin.
Slack on its own
Slack records what the team said about the business and when. Sales, traffic and spend live in other tools.
Timing. Slack timestamps every message, which makes it a record of when the team noticed and decided things.
Access. A Slack app installed to the channels you choose.
