Frequently asked questions
What happens if I forget to add the "send-gift-card" tag to a delayed order ticket?
The workflow won't send a gift card without this specific tag, so you can safely add it to any ticket even after the initial hour delay has passed. The workflow will check for the tag and process the gift card on the next hourly cycle.
Can I change the $20 gift card amount or customize the message?
Yes, you can edit both the gift card value and the note message in the "Create Card" step configuration. You can set different amounts or personalize the message to match your brand voice and compensation policies.
What if my Govalo account gets disconnected or the product ID changes?
The workflow will fail at the gift card creation step and you'll receive an error notification. You'll need to reconnect your Govalo account in MESA and update the product ID field with the correct gift card product from your Govalo dashboard.
