OMNI currently supports a number of event triggers and event types on Shopify Flow and Klaviyo, allowing you to update a customer's loyalty information to an external platform and/or build automated workflows or communications using Klaviyo, Shopify Flow and it's connected platforms.

Note regarding updating customer loyalty data outside of Shopify

  • If you are using Klaviyo - OMNI will automatically update the customer information within Klaviyo when an event is sent, no additional automation is needed to be setup

  • If you are using Shopify Flow - If you would like to update certain customer profiles on your third party solutions integrated with Shopify Flow, you will need to set up relevant Shopify Flows to facilitate this
