Triggers

Triggers start your workflow when something happens on your Shopify store, like when an order is created, a customer is tagged, or a product is updated.
By default, Shopify trigger data excludes metafield information. Use MESA’s Metafield Namespaces feature to add metafield data to your workflow’s trigger data.
For example, to include global metafields, you will need to include the "global" namespace.
If you use the Fields feature, MESA will automatically include metafield data associated with the trigger in the workflow trigger data.
The Include Fields feature allows you to filter out the data received in the trigger payload. By selecting values from the Fields dropdown menu, you will limit the payload's data and only allow certain data to come through from Shopify.
❗It is important not to edit enabled (live) workflows to add the Include Fields feature, as it may disrupt future automations. We recommend duplicating the workflow first.
Using the Include Fields feature won’t limit what you see in MESA’s Testing and Variables features. All data and variables will still appear.
