Create a Shopify Flow step-by-step

To create a Flow on Shopify, follow these simple steps:

1. Download and install the Shopify Flow app from the Shopify App Store.
2. Open the Shopify Flow app from your Shopify dashboard.
3. Click on "Create Workflow" to start building your workflow.
4. Choose a trigger for your workflow, which can be an action like an order being created, an inventory change, or a customer status change.
5. Add conditions (if statements) to specify when certain actions should be taken:
   • for example, if an order contains a specific product;
   • or if inventory falls below a certain threshold.
6. Add actions that should be executed when the conditions are met:
   • for example, send an email to the customer, update a database field, or create a task in your order management system.
7. Click "Save" to save your workflow, then activate it for it to start running.

As an illustration, suppose you manage a custom t-shirt Shopify agency. You could create a Flow that activates every time an order over €100 is placed. Using this Flow, you can automatically send a personalized thank-you email to your customer, involve your production team to prioritize the order, and update your inventory. Here's what this workflow might look like:

1. Trigger: A new order is created.
2. Condition: The order amount is greater than €100.
3. Actions:
   • send a thank-you email to the customer;
   • create a priority task in the order management system for production;
   • update the stock level of the ordered product.
