How it works

2 steps to get Slack notifications when returns are authorized in Loop Returns

App connector: Loop Returns • Time to complete: 3 minutes

Why this matters: This trigger monitors your Loop Returns account for any new returns or updates to existing returns, capturing the exact moment when return status changes occur.

This step automatically connects to your Loop Returns account through a webhook URL that MESA generates for you. You'll need to copy this webhook URL and create two separate webhooks in your Loop Returns dashboard - one for "Return created" events and another for "Return updated" events, both using the same URL. When any return activity happens in Loop Returns, the webhook sends that data to MESA to start the workflow. The step captures all return details including the return ID, status, and other relevant information that gets passed to the next step.

App connector: Slack • Time to complete: 2 minutes

Why this matters: This action immediately notifies your team in Slack whenever a return reaches authorized status, keeping everyone informed without manual monitoring.

This step sends a formatted message to your specified Slack channel containing the return ID and authorization details. You'll configure which Slack channel receives these notifications by entering the channel name (like #returns or #customer-service) in the channel field. The default message reads "Authorized return. Return ID: [return ID]" but you can customize this text to include additional return details or match your team's communication style. The message sends instantly when the trigger detects an authorized return status.
