This n8n workflow automates the process of notifying your team via Slack whenever a new order is created in your Shopify store. It streamlines order alerts, improves team coordination, and ensures no sales are missed by providing real-time notifications with detailed order information.

The workflow starts with a Shopify webhook trigger that listens for new order creations. When triggered, it gathers order details and formats this information into a clear message structure. This structured data includes customer name, order number, total price, currency, item count, and a direct link to the order in Shopify’s admin panel.

Once the data is prepared, the workflow sends a notification to a designated Slack channel, delivering a professional and informative message about the new order. Additional sticky notes in the workflow serve as visual guides, highlighting the purpose, setup instructions, key features, and the flow for users to understand and implement this automation effectively.

This setup is ideal for eCommerce businesses seeking instant alerts, enhanced team communication, and efficient order management, all achieved within approximately 20 minutes and suitable for beginners.

**Key components include:**

– Shopify Trigger node for real-time order detection

– Set node for data formatting

– Slack node for sending notifications

– Sticky notes for documentation and guidance

Practical use cases include sales monitoring, customer service, inventory management, and overall workflow automation to boost operational efficiency.
