Shopify and Slack: OTC Low-Stock Alert Template
A scheduled Spojit workflow that checks your Shopify inventory for over-the-counter retail products and posts a Slack alert whenever an item drops below its reorder threshold.
What It Builds
A Schedule trigger runs the workflow on the cadence you choose. A Shopify Connector node pulls current inventory levels for your OTC products, a Condition node flags any item below its reorder point, and a Slack Connector node posts a single alert listing the low-stock items to your team channel.
The Prompt
Paste this into Miraxa and it builds the workflow, connecting the tools for you:
Build a workflow that runs every weekday at 8am, pulls inventory levels from Shopify for our over-the-counter retail products, and posts a message to the #inventory channel in Slack listing any product whose available quantity has dropped below 20 units, including the product name, SKU, and quantity on hand.
Connectors Used
- Schedule trigger - runs the check on a 5-field cron in your timezone.
- Shopify - reads product and inventory levels.
- Slack - posts the low-stock alert to a channel.
Customize It
Edit the prompt to change the schedule (for example hourly), the Slack channel, or the threshold. You can use a fixed number like 20 for every item, or ask Miraxa to compare each product against a per-SKU reorder point stored in a product tag or metafield.
Tips
- Your Shopify connection needs read access to products and inventory; Slack needs permission to post in the target channel.
- Keep the Shopify and Slack nodes in Direct mode for a fast, predictable run with no AI cost.
- If your catalog is large, ask Miraxa to summarize only the items below threshold so the Slack message stays concise.
