Mechanic is a development and ecommerce automation platform for Shopify. :)
Some apps are responsible for placing orders. Use this task to tag orders, both incoming and historical, based on which app was responsible for placing them.
Runs Occurs whenever an order is created, Occurs when a user manually triggers the task, and Occurs when a bulk operation is completed. Configuration includes app titles and order tags and test mode.
Some apps are responsible for placing orders. Use this task to tag orders, both incoming and historical, based on which app was responsible for placing them.
This task scans your incoming orders, tagging them based on the Shopify app responsible for placing each one. Run this task manually to scan and tag your existing orders.
Configure this task with app titles on the left, and order tags to add on the right.
Use the "Test mode" option to see what the task intends to do, without actually having the task actually make any changes to your customers.
Please note: this task works by app, and as such does not apply to orders that are created by a sales channel. It's sometimes difficult to distinguish whether a third-party is using an app or a sales channel; if you're having trouble with this task, try its companion, Auto-tag orders by sales channel.
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.
