How it works

2 steps to start tracking Shopify app uninstalls in an organized Airtable database

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

Why this matters: This trigger monitors your Shopify Partner Dashboard to detect when merchants uninstall your app, capturing critical data like the shop domain, uninstall date, and reason that you need for retention analysis.

You'll need to provide your App ID from your Partner Dashboard to connect this trigger. MESA checks for new uninstalls every hour and automatically captures the shop's myShopify domain, the exact date and time of uninstall, the type of uninstallation, any description provided, and the merchant's stated reason for leaving. Once an uninstall is detected, all this data gets passed to the next step for organized storage in your Airtable base.

App connector: Airtable • Time to complete: 1 minute

Why this matters: This step creates a structured database record for each uninstall, transforming raw webhook data into organized rows that you can analyze, filter, and use to identify patterns in why merchants leave your app.

You'll select which Airtable base to use and give your new table a descriptive name like "App Uninstalls" or "Churn Tracking." The workflow automatically creates columns for Date, Shopify Domain, Type, Description, and Reason, though you can deselect any columns you don't need during setup. Each time the trigger fires, this step adds a new row with all the uninstall details, creating a searchable database of your app's churn data that updates in real-time.
