FAQs

How many tools can I use per workflow?

You can use unlimited tools per workflow in MESA. There is no restriction on the number of tools you can add to a single workflow. Build workflows as simple or complex as needed—combine 5 tools or 50 tools depending on your automation requirements. Common workflows use 3-10 tools.

Can I use multiple tools together?

Yes, MESA tools are specifically designed to work together seamlessly in workflows. For example, use Filter to add conditional logic, Logic for filtering, looping, and reshaping data in one step, Loop to iterate over actions, Transform to manipulate data, and Email to send notifications. Tools pass data between each step automatically, making it easy to combine logic, communication, integration, and AI tools in a single workflow.

Do I need coding skills?

No coding skills are required to use MESA. The Custom Code tool is optional and only needed for advanced users who want to write JavaScript for highly specialized logic that visual tools can't handle. Most merchants never need to write code. Additionally, MESA's AI can build workflows for you conversationally, making automation even more accessible without technical knowledge.

Can I connect external services?

Yes, MESA provides multiple ways to connect external services. The API tool makes REST API calls to any service with an API. The Webhook tool receives incoming data from external platforms. The FTP tool uploads and downloads files via FTP/SFTP. The Web Request tool fetches data from websites. Additionally, MESA has 100+ pre-built native integrations with popular services so you don't need to use integration tools directly.
