Customize this workflow even further:
Set conditional filters
Add conditions to only track orders above a certain value, from specific customer tags, or containing particular products you want to monitor closely.
Connect to inventory management
Link this data to inventory tracking by adding steps that update stock levels or flag low inventory items when orders contain your best-selling products.
Create automated notifications
Add email or Slack alerts when high-value orders come in, when customers from specific regions place orders, or when certain products get purchased.
Build customer insights tables
Store customer purchase history and preferences in MESA Tables to identify repeat buyers, calculate lifetime value, and track purchasing patterns over time.
Frequently asked questions
Will this create a separate row for each product in multi-item orders?
Yes, the Loop step processes each line item individually, so if someone buys 3 different products in one order, you'll get 3 separate rows in your spreadsheet - one for each product with its own pricing and details.
Can I add more order information beyond what's pre-configured?
Absolutely. During setup, you can select from 12 different data fields including order tags, fulfillment status, payment method, and discount codes. You can also modify the template later to include custom fields or calculated values.
What happens if my Google Sheets spreadsheet gets deleted or renamed?
The workflow will fail and stop adding new rows. You'll need to either restore the original spreadsheet name or update the workflow configuration to point to a new spreadsheet. MESA will send you error notifications so you know when this happens.
What is a template?
MESA templates are fully pre-configured workflows built and vetted by Shopify Experts. Unlike competitor templates that provide basic scaffolds requiring extensive setup, MESA templates come with all data variables properly mapped, required fields configured, and steps ready to activate. You can turn them on immediately and start automating.
Can I customize a template?
Absolutely! While our templates work out-of-the-box, every step can be personalized to match your exact business requirements. Add conditional logic, integrate additional apps, or build more sophisticated workflows. MESA's templates provide a solid foundation that you can expand as needed.
Are templates free?
Yes! Our entire library of expert-built, production-ready templates is free to use. Unlike platforms that charge for premium templates or provide only basic scaffolds, MESA gives you access to hundreds of fully-configured, vetted workflows at no additional cost.
