Tag products when a variant sells out at a location

When a variant's available quantity reaches zero at one of your locations, add the tag sold-out-at-location to its product. Shopify's own inventory triggers carry no location; this one does.

One trigger, built-in Shopify actions only, no other app needed. Nothing in it is specific to a store, so it works as soon as it is imported.

The workflow in Shopify Flow: Tag products when a variant sells out at a location
The complete workflow as it looks in Shopify Flow.

What it needs

  • The app's permission Inventory Data Access + Product, Variant & Collection Data Access. See Permissions and data access.
  • Nothing else: turning the workflow on switches the trigger Out of Stock at Location on in the app.

Install the Workflow Trigger Extensions app and grant Inventory Data Access and Product, Variant & Collection Data Access on its Permissions page. Turning this workflow on switches the trigger on in the app.

Get the workflow

  1. Download the .flow file attached at the bottom of this page.
  2. In your Shopify admin open Flow, click Import and choose the file.
  3. Check the steps, then click Turn on workflow.

The file is an export from Shopify Flow itself. Do not edit it by hand; change the workflow in Flow after importing it.

How it works

  1. Out of Stock at Location fires when a variant's available quantity reaches zero at one location, and names the location.
  2. Add product tags puts sold-out-at-location on the product.

Make it yours

  • Add a condition on inventoryLevel.locationName to watch a single store or warehouse.
  • Pair it with the template that removes the tag when stock returns.
