Add tag to Shopify order


You can automatically add tags to a Shopify order whenever a purchase order is created. To do this, we use Shopify Flow, a free app available on all Shopify plans.

1: Enable integration in the app:

  • Open Auto Purchase Orders app
  • Go to Settings > Integrations > Shopify Flow
  • Enable the “Purchase order created” trigger

2: Install Shopify Flow

If you haven’t installed it yet, download and install Shopify Flow from the Shopify App Store (link).

3: Import the Workflow

Download this flow file and import it to the Shopify Flow app

Shopify flow import

Once you have imported the file, you should see your newly created workflow. Click on it, then click “Edit” button.

Edit workflow

Find the last step in this workflow and click on it (1). In the popover that opens, you can customize the tag or add additional tags. You can also include Liquid variables in the tag name to make it dynamic based on the PO. For example, using the string AutoPO - {{purchaseOrder.poNumber}} will produce a tag like “AutoPO - HP0301”, where “HP0301” is the PO number. Finally, make sure to turn on the workflow (3) — its status should be “Active” after that.
