What’s New at Shopify?

Many Flow actions require a resource ID. For example, to update the product status, you need the product ID and the new status. By default, Flow analyzes your workflow and provides the product ID so that you don’t have to figure it out.

When the workflow contains more than one resource of the same type, or when a “Run code” step is used to generate an ID, Flow might not choose the correct ID. This improvement allows you to specify a resource to build the automation you need.

On actions that require a resource, you’ll now have an option to enter a variable or a specific resource’s GID (such as “gid://shopify/Product/144848548” and not “144848548”).
