What it does
This trigger starts Shopify Flow when a storefront event happens, such as a product view, add to cart, or purchase-related event.
When to use it
Use this when you want shopper behavior on the storefront to start automation in Shopify Flow.
Before you start
- Install Flow Buddy
- Confirm your plan includes storefront triggers
- Decide which storefront event should create the Flow event
- Make sure the storefront event is being emitted correctly
Setup steps
- Open Shopify Flow and add the Flow Buddy storefront trigger.
- Configure the workflow logic that should run after the event.
- Update the storefront or theme so the target event is sent.
- Save and publish the workflow.
- Perform the storefront action on a test session.
- Confirm the workflow runs.
Example
A shopper views the same product several times. Flow starts and adds the shopper to a follow-up campaign.
Troubleshooting
- If nothing fires, confirm the storefront event is actually being sent.
