Events

Monitor Shopify webhook events, filter by topic or error, and investigate task run results in the Mechanic Events page.

The Events screen shows a live stream of events — the triggers that cause your tasks to run. Use it to monitor your automations, and to investigate when a task isn't behaving as expected.

Event list

Events are displayed in reverse chronological order, showing the time, topic, and task results for each event. The list updates in real time as new events arrive.

Filtering

Use the Filters button to narrow results by search text, date range, error type, event topic, or specific task. The Errors tab provides quick access to all events where something went wrong.

Save filter combinations as custom views to quickly return to filtered lists you use often.

Event detail

Click any event to see exactly what happened: which tasks ran in response, what actions they performed, any errors encountered, and the raw event data (JSON).

If a task failed due to a temporary issue (like a network error), you can retry the event to run it again. Use cancel to stop a queued event that hasn't started processing yet. You can also export the event and all related data as JSON via email — useful for debugging with support or archiving.
