How it works

2 steps to start logging every Shopify app uninstall event directly into a Google Sheets spreadsheet

App connector: Shopify Partner • Time to complete: 2 minutes

Why this matters: This trigger monitors your Shopify Partner account and automatically detects whenever someone uninstalls your app, capturing essential details like the store domain, uninstall reason, and timestamp.

You'll need to provide your App ID, which you can find in your Shopify Partner Dashboard under Apps & Sales Channels. The system checks for uninstalls every 15 minutes and captures data including the uninstall date, shop domain, uninstall type, description, and reason when available. This trigger runs automatically once configured, requiring no ongoing maintenance while ensuring you never miss an uninstall event.

App connector: Google Sheets • Time to complete: 3 minutes

Why this matters: This step takes each uninstall event and creates a new row in your Google Sheets spreadsheet, organizing all the captured data into clearly labeled columns for easy analysis and tracking.

During setup, you'll name your new spreadsheet and select which columns to include from options like Date, Shopify Domain, Type, Description, and Reason. The system automatically creates the spreadsheet with your chosen name and adds a new row for each uninstall event that occurs. All selected data fields populate automatically based on the information captured by the trigger, giving you a comprehensive log without manual data entry.

Customize this workflow even further:

Set custom delays

Add a delay step before logging to Google Sheets, giving you time to reach out to the merchant before the uninstall is officially recorded in your tracking.

Chain multiple actions

Connect additional steps like sending Slack notifications to your team, updating customer records in your CRM, or triggering email sequences to attempt re-engagement.

Store data in tables

Save uninstall data to MESA's built-in database tables for more advanced querying and reporting alongside your Google Sheets tracking.

Deploy AI agents for smart decisions

Let AI agents analyze uninstall reasons and automatically categorize them, route high-value churned customers to your sales team, or trigger different follow-up sequences based on the uninstall context.
