Automating Repetitive Tasks in Your Shopify Store
If you’re looking to streamline your Shopify store operations, automating repetitive tasks can save you a lot of time and effort. One effective way to do this is by using make.com, formerly known as Integromat. With make.com, you can build powerful workflows called scenarios to automate tasks such as tagging new orders or sending data to Google Sheets. Here’s how to get started.
Getting Started with make.com
Sign In to Your Account
Begin by signing into your make.com account from the dashboard. If you don’t have an account yet, you can easily create one.
Create a New Scenario
Once you’re logged in, look for the option to create a new scenario. Click on it to initiate your automation.
Adding Shopify to Your Workflow
Add Shopify as Your First Module
To start building your automation, click the big plus button. In the search bar, type “Shopify” to add it as your first module. This is where the magic begins.
Connect Your Shopify Store
Next, you’ll need to connect your Shopify store. Log in and authorize make.com to access your store data. This step is crucial for enabling seamless automation.
Setting Up Triggers
Choose Your Trigger
Once your Shopify store is connected, you can choose a trigger for your scenario. Common options include “Watch Orders” or “Watch Customers.” Choosing the right trigger will help initiate your automation workflow when specific actions occur in your store.
Adding Additional Modules
Link Other Apps
After selecting your trigger, click the plus button again to add another module. You can link your Shopify setup to a variety of other applications, including Gmail, Google Sheets, Slack, and more, depending on your automation needs.
For example, you can set up your workflow to automatically send an email notification when a new order is placed or log customer data directly into a Google Sheet.
Finalizing Your Automation

That’s it! Your make.com scenario is now live. With this setup, you can save time and simplify your Shopify workflow dramatically.
