Mechanic is a development and ecommerce automation platform for Shopify. :)
Use this task to automatically make add new products to the sales channels of your choice, making each product available on each channel immediately after the product is created.
Runs Occurs whenever a product is created. Configuration includes sales channel names.
Use this task to automatically make add new products to the sales channels of your choice, making each product available on each channel immediately after the product is created.
Mechanic is designed to benefit everybody: merchants, customers, developers, agencies, Shopifolks, everybody.
That’s why we make it easy to configure automation without code, why we make it easy to tweak the underlying code once tasks are installed, and why we publish it all here for everyone to learn from.
(By the way, have you seen our documentation? Have you joined the Slack community?)
