Flow
The Flow action sends data to Shopify Flow, arriving as one of four possible Flow triggers.
This page is about the Mechanic action that sends data to Shopify Flow. For a review of Mechanic's entire integration with Flow, see Shopify Flow.
Options
Resource options
The Flow action accepts at most one resource option, identifying a specific Shopify resource, and resulting in a resource-specific Flow trigger. If no resource option is provided, Mechanic will use the General trigger.
These resource options only accept fully-numeric resource IDs (i.e. 12345). They do not accept global IDs (i.e. gid://shopify/Customer/12345).
customer_id
"Mechanic sent customer data"
product_id
"Mechanic sent product data"
order_id
"Mechanic sent order data"
(when no resource option is given)
"Mechanic sent general data"
Data options
This action also sends user-defined data, with one option available for each of Flow's supported datatypes. These options are always sent to Flow, even if they're omitted from the action definition; when omitted, their values are set to the documented default.
