Flow Automation: Removing Products from a Category

You can use Flow Automation to automatically remove products from a specific collection under certain conditions. This is useful for managing time-sensitive collections like "New Arrivals" or seasonal collections, helping you keep your store organized without manual intervention.

Field Description

How to Get a Collection ID

1. From your SHOPLINE admin panel, go to Products > Collections, then select the collection you want to view.
   
2. On the collection details page, check the URL in your browser. The number string after "/categories/" is the collection ID.
   

Supported Actions

You can use the following actions with this trigger. Click on each action name to view its setup details:

• [Product] Bulk Product Operation
• [Product] Product Status Updated
• [Product] Product Inventory Changed
• [Product] Product Created

Example Use Case

Here’s a real-world example to help you understand how to configure the workflow to remove products from the "New Arrivals" collection after 30 days. This setup is ideal for merchants who want newly created products to be featured in a "New Arrivals" collection for a limited period, and automatically cleaned up after that (available in product templates):

• Trigger: Product is created
• Condition: Product has been created for over 30 days
• Action: Remove product from "New Arrivals" collection

Available Templates

Here is a ready-to-use template that incorporates this trigger. Click the template to view or apply it:

• Automatically remove products from New Arrivals after 30 days: When a product is created manually, via plugin, or through import, it is automatically tagged as [New Product] and added to the [New Collection] collection. After 30 days, the system removes the tag and removes the product from the collection.
