Triggers in the new Flow

Triggers are events that start a workflow. After you select a trigger to start a workflow, you can set actions to take place immediately, or you can set conditions to determine what actions are performed.

Testing workflows

To test a workflow trigger, first verify that the workflow can safely run if a real event occurs while the workflow is active.

Steps:

1. Activate the workflow.
2. Create an event that causes the trigger to start the workflow. For example, if you're testing the Collection created event, then create a collection in the Shopify admin.
3. Monitor the Activity page to verify that your workflow has run.

For more information on monitoring workflows, refer to Monitoring workflows in Shopify Flow.
