Mechanic is a development and ecommerce automation platform for Shopify. :)
When a new order is created, this task will tag all open orders for the customer which match the new order's shipping address, giving you the potential to combine shipments.
Runs Occurs whenever an order is created. Configuration includes tag to apply.
Mechanic is designed to benefit everybody: merchants, customers, developers, agencies, Shopifolks, everybody.
That’s why we make it easy to configure automation without code, why we make it easy to tweak the underlying code once tasks are installed, and why we publish it all here for everyone to learn from.
(By the way, have you seen our documentation? Have you joined the Slack community?)
