Shopify Flow workflow components
Flow is an event-based feature that enables you to create automated workflows. This means that Flow monitors your store for events, and lets you create an automated sequence of actions that are taken in response.
To create these automations, you build a workflow using components calledtriggers,conditions, andactions.
| Workflow component | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Trigger | A trigger is an event that starts a workflow, and can be something that happens in your store or in an app. | A new order is created in your store. |
| Condition | A condition determines whether an action is taken, based on the conditions that you set. | A condition is set to check whether the total amount paid for the order is over $200. |
| Action | An action is a change that's made to your store or in an app if the condition is met. | If the total amount paid for the order is over $200, then a tag is added to the account of the customer who placed the order. |
