Customize this workflow even further:
Add tags instead of removing them
Duplicate the workflow and change the "Product Remove Tag" step to "Product Add Tag" to automatically add promotional tags when campaigns begin, creating a complete tag management system for your promotional calendar.
Send completion notification
Add a Slack or email step after the loop ends to notify your team when tag removal completes, including the number of products processed and confirming the campaign cleanup finished successfully.
Remove multiple tags at once
Duplicate the "Product Remove Tag" step inside the loop to remove multiple tags in a single workflow run (like removing both "Sale" and "Featured" tags when a promotion ends).
Archive products after tag removal
Add a conditional check after tag removal that archives products if they have no remaining tags or match certain criteria, automatically cleaning up products from limited-time collections.
Frequently asked questions
What if I want to remove tags from my entire catalog instead of just one collection?
Replace the "Get List of Collections' Products" step with a "Get List of Products" step that retrieves all products in your store. Be cautious with this approach as it will attempt to remove the tag from every product in your catalog, which could take significant time for large stores.
Can I schedule this to run on a specific date and time only once?
Yes, when configuring the schedule trigger, select a one-time execution option and choose your specific date and time. The workflow will run once at that moment and then stop. This is perfect for ending specific promotional campaigns on exact dates.
What happens if a product in the collection doesn't have the tag I'm trying to remove?
The step will skip that product without error. Only products that actually have the specified tag will have it removed. This makes the workflow safe to run even if not all products in the collection have the tag.
