How does Alloy Automation work?

Alloy Automation is a no code automation tool for ecommerce. We’ve built a drag and drop interface for any merchant to put together workflows to automate tasks across fulfillments, marketing, customer support, & more. You can construct workflows that are initiated with a “trigger block.” This could be when a new order is created, a customer views a marketing email, or simply once a week. When a workflow is triggered, the following “action blocks” then carry out the specified work.

Connecting Webflow to Alloy

Once you have your Alloy account set-up go to your dashboard and click “+ New Workflow” in the top left corner. Select “Start from Scratch”

Give your workflow a name and then choose the Webflow trigger block. At this point you will need to authenticate your account. Click the dropdown “Account” > “+ Add New Account” > Authenticate.

You will be redirected to Webflow to login and verify your account. Once you are logged in give Alloy permission to access any projects you want automated.
