How this template works:
Detect a new order
The workflow triggers when a new order is placed in Shopify, initiating the process to check product inventory.
Loop through line items
Each product variant in the order is examined individually to check its stock levels.
Retrieve variant inventory
The system retrieves inventory data for each variant to determine if any have gone out of stock.
Check if the variant is out of stock
If the variant’s inventory quantity is zero or below, the workflow updates the product’s status.
Retrieve product details
The full product details are retrieved to prepare for an update.
Check for other in-stock variants
A custom script reviews all variants of the product to determine if any remain in stock. If at least one is available, the workflow stops here.
Update product status
If no variants are in stock, the product’s title is updated to include "OUT OF STOCK," a message is added to the product description, an inventory tag is applied, and the product is unpublished to prevent new purchases.
