Email Notification When a Shopify Product Goes Out of Stock

This trigger activates automatically whenever a customer places an order in your Shopify store. It captures all the order details including which products were purchased and in what quantities. No configuration is needed - MESA connects directly to your Shopify store's order data and passes the complete order information to the next step for processing.

This step automatically retrieves your shop's basic information including your myshopify domain name. The workflow uses this data to build direct links to your Shopify admin panel in the email notifications. No input is required from you - MESA automatically fetches your shop details and stores them for use in later steps.

The Loop step takes the line items from the order and processes them one at a time. For each product variant in the order, it runs the remaining workflow steps to check inventory levels and send notifications if needed. This ensures that if someone orders 3 different products and 2 go out of stock, you'll get separate notifications for each one.

This step fetches detailed information about each product variant including its current inventory quantity, SKU, and product ID. It uses the variant ID from the order line item to look up the most current stock levels in your Shopify store. The inventory quantity retrieved here is what gets compared against your out-of-stock threshold in the next step.

The Filter step compares the current inventory quantity against your specified out-of-stock threshold. You'll configure the threshold value during setup - enter "0" if you want notifications only when completely out of stock, or a higher number like "5" if you want early warnings when stock gets low. Only products that meet this condition will trigger email notifications in the final step.

The Send Email step creates and sends the notification message to your specified email address. You'll configure the recipient email address during setup. The email automatically includes the product's SKU, current inventory level, and a direct link to the product in your Shopify admin panel. The message is sent only for products that passed the inventory threshold filter.
