Every step, in order

When it happens in the first app, the step runs in the second, with the client’s own account.

A new order comes in
A new order in the store, checked every 5 minutes. The app needs the read_orders scope.
Send a template email
An email from one of the client’s Postmark templates (a receipt, a booking confirmation), its variables filled from the run. The template must be on the server whose token this is.

What each client fills in

Postmark: From address
For example hello@northside.example
Postmark: Template alias
Postmark → Templates → the template: its alias.

The accounts it needs

Each is the client’s own, stored encrypted and never copied between clients. Until one is added the client’s checklist shows it, and nothing runs.

  • Only for a store that already has an admin-created custom app. In the client’s Shopify admin: Apps → Develop apps → the app: its Admin API scopes must include write_customers and read_orders; the token is under API credentials (shown once when it is made; if it is no longer shown, generate a new one).

  • Postmark → the client’s server → API Tokens → copy the Server API token. The From address must be a confirmed sender signature or on a verified domain.

After you install it

It lands switched off. The client’s checklist holds exactly this:

  1. Connect the client’s Shopify, for “A new order comes in”
  2. Connect the client’s Postmark, for “Send a template email”
  3. Fill in Postmark: From address (For example hello@northside.example)
  4. Fill in Postmark: Template alias (Postmark → Templates → the template: its alias)
