Quote request notification
Every time a customer sends the cart as a quote request, you get an email.
How it runs.
It starts in Shopify: no form involved.
- TriggerDraft order created
The docs page describes the moment (a customer submits a quote request); the trigger name is Shopify Flow’s.
- Action
Send an internal email to the address you set
What you need, and how to install it.
- Shopify Flow, free in Shopify
- Plan: Server
- Add-on: Draft orders
- Element: Draft orders component in the cart
- The Draft orders add-on switched on in the Smootify dashboard
- Install Shopify Flow from the Shopify App Store. It is free in Shopify, but it is a separate app.
- Switch on the Draft orders add-on in the Smootify dashboard.
- Place the Smootify element in Webflow: Draft orders component in the cart.
- Download the .flow file and import it in Shopify Flow.
- After importing, edit the flow and replace the default email with the address where you want the notifications.
- Test it once with a real submission or order, then turn the flow on.
Where people get stuck.
- 01
The email field of the quote form must be named
email. Webflow renames fields when you copy a form, and this is where quotes break most often. - 02
You need the Server plan and the add-on switched on. One without the other does nothing.
- 03
The success message means “quote sent”, not “order placed”. Rewrite it, or the customer thinks they bought.
Get the .flow file.
The file is ready. Download it, import it in Shopify Flow, then follow the install steps above.
