# Flows dedicated for Shopify Section: Flows Description: The Shopify-only nodes of the flow editor (five actions, the Cart Value condition and the add-to-cart trigger), the Shopify templates and Flow strategies. Verified against Tidio panel 12.304.0 Last updated: 2026-11-06 Source: https://help.tidio.com/articles/flows-dedicated-for-shopify/ In recent years, e-commerce has become increasingly popular. To help online businesses like yours manage customer interactions more efficiently, Tidio offers a range of dedicated flows designed explicitly for use with Shopify. **In this article, you'll learn:** - [What the Shopify-dedicated flow nodes are]() - [What special flow templates are available for Shopify users ]() - [What flow Strategies are]() ## Nodes dedicated for Shopify Currently, we have seven Shopify-exclusive nodes available in the flows editor to help you manage the most important online store matters with automation: five actions, one condition and one trigger. You'll find the actions and the condition in the **Shopify** group of the **Actions** and **Conditions** menus: ![The flow editor with the Actions menu open and scrolled to the Shopify group, showing Check order status, Check product availability, Check shipping details, Send a coupon code and Recommend products]() Each of these nodes works with the Shopify integration. If your store isn't connected yet, the node's settings will show a **Shopify integration** box with the **Integrate with Shopify** button - it only takes a couple of minutes. ### Check order status This node will answer your client's questions about their order status after providing their order number or e-mail. The flow reads your statuses directly from your Shopify panel. If an order has not been shipped yet, the [**Transfer to agent **message]() appears for the visitor, and the conversation is transferred to the unassigned section of the conversations panel. The Order Status node allows for looking up orders placed within the last 60 days. If your store doesn't use delivery tracking numbers, select **Non standard tracking** in the node's settings. If the flow then detects a problem with the order, the conversation will be transferred to an agent. ![The Check order status node tile as it appears in the Shopify group of the Actions menu, with its mailbox icon and the name Check order status]() ### Check product availability This node will answer questions about the availability of particular products in your store. After providing the product name, the client will be informed whether that specific item is available. ![The Check product availability node tile from the Shopify group of the Actions menu, with its icon and the name Check product availability]() ### Check shipping details This node will allow your flow to answer your customer's inquiries about the delivery location of your products. First, the flow will ask about the area they would like to order from, and, they'll be informed whether the delivery to that area can take place. ![The Check shipping details node tile from the Shopify group of the Actions menu, with its icon and the name Check shipping details]() ### Send a coupon code This node allows you to send coupons to visitors. Coupon codes will automatically be synced with your Shopify store. To learn more, see our article about tracking the impact on your revenue with coupon codes. ![The Send a coupon code node tile from the Shopify group of the Actions menu, with its discount icon and the name Send a coupon code]() ### Recommend products This node will automatically offer your visitors a set of products similar to those they interacted with in your store previously (they've added a certain product to their cart). You can choose how many products should be displayed, and visitors can add the recommended products to their carts directly from the widget. You can learn more about setting up this feature [in this guide](). ![The "Recommend products" action has an icon of overlapping cards.]() ### Cart Value This condition lets your flow take a different path when the value of the visitor's cart reaches the amount you set - for example, to offer free shipping only above a certain order value. You'll find it in the **Shopify** group of the **Conditions** menu. ![The Cart Value condition's settings in the flow editor, with "When cart value..." set and 50 typed in the Amount field, and the Then outputs below]() ### ### ### Shopify - Visitor adds to a cart This trigger allows you to trigger a flow when a visitor adds an item to their shopping cart. You'll find it in the **Triggers** menu, under **Based on visitor's actions on page**.
