How can merchants monitor staff login activity in Shopify?

Yes. Merchants can monitor staff login activity using Shopify Anomaly Detection by miniOrange. It builds a behavioral profile for every staff account and automatically flags logins that break from it, so you don't have to define rules or watch dashboards yourself.

Consider a staff member who always signs in from the same office IP during business hours. If that account suddenly logs in from an unfamiliar location at 3am, or starts moving faster through the admin than usual, that's exactly the kind of shift the system is built to catch; even though nothing about it trips a hardcoded threshold.

Our solution does this for every staff login and session, not just app or agent activity:

  • Track each staff member's typical login IPs, active hours, and day-to-day behavior to build a personal baseline.
  • Flag logins from new or unrecognized IP addresses as a scored signal.
  • Detect sign-ins at hours that fall outside that person's normal activity window.
  • Score each login and session alongside every other action using a composite 0–100 risk score, so you can see how serious it is at a glance.
  • Record every login event in a full, queryable audit log for later investigation.
  • Group repeated or related signals into one deduplicated anomaly card per staff member, instead of a flood of separate alerts.

This covers staff activity that flows through Shopify's Admin API. It doesn't replace your identity provider's own login security (like MFA enforcement) - it's a layer on top, focused on catching unusual behavior once someone's already signed in.
