This workflow automates the Mark as Fulfilled action in Shopify for each order, ensuring a seamless fulfillment process without manual intervention. How It Works This workflow retrieves all unfulfilled orders and processes their fulfillment automatically. Since Shopify requires a Fulfillment Order ID (not Order ID) to trigger fulfillment, the workflow follows these steps: 1️⃣ Get all unfulfilled orders using the Shopify node. 2️⃣ Retrieve the Fulfillment Order ID using the "List Fulfillment Orders" action. 3️⃣ Create a fulfillment request using "Mark fulfillment order as fulfilled." 4️⃣ Handle edge cases, such as partially fulfilled orders or API errors. This ensures that every valid order is marked as fulfilled efficiently. 🔗 Ongoing discussions on this topic: Relevant Shopify API Discussion Step-by-step The workflow can be run as requested or on schedule You can adjust these parameters within the Shopify and filter nodes: Shopify Admin URL – A Global node to customize the Shopify store URL. To find your Shopify store ID, login into your Shopify admin, then look at the URL in your browser's address bar, the subdomain portion (e.g., example_store_id.myshopify.com) is your store ID (in this case: example_store_id) Order Filtering – Ensures only valid orders are fulfilled, particularly useful if: You sell digital downloads or gift cards exclusively. You use third-party fulfillment services for all products. Credentials To run this workflow, you'll need: Shopify API Key – Required for authentication. Who Is This For? Shopify store owners looking to automate their fulfillment process. Merchants selling digital or personalized products who need instant fulfillment.

📌 Validate Seatable Webhooks with HMAC SHA256 Authentication This mini workflow is designed to securely validate incoming Seatable webhooks using HMAC SHA256 signature verification. 🔐 What it does: Listens for incoming Seatable webhook requests. Calculates a SHA256 HMAC hash of the raw request body using your shared secret. Compares the computed hash with the x-seatable-signature header (after removing the sha256= prefix). If the hashes match: responds with 200 OK and forwards the request to subsequent nodes. If the hashes don’t match: responds with 403 Forbidden. ⚠️ Important Notes: This workflow is provided as a template and is not intended to work standalone. Please duplicate it and integrate it with your custom logic at the "Add nodes for processing" node. Configuration steps: Set your secret key in the “Calculate sha256” crypto node (replace the placeholder). Adjust the webhook path to suit your environment (or set it to "manual" for testing). Connect your actual logic after the verification step.

📌 Description This workflow serves a 1x1 transparent PNG image via a webhook, which can be embedded in an email to track when the email is opened. When the image is loaded by the recipient's email client, the webhook is triggered, optionally capturing a userId to identify who opened the email. 📂 Workflow Steps Webhook Trigger (Request img) Path: /webhook/change-with-your-id Triggered by an HTTP request (e.g. when the image is loaded in an email). Accepts a query parameter id to identify the recipient. Set Base64 Data (Create data pix) Creates a variable data containing a Base64-encoded transparent PNG image (1x1 pixel). Convert to Binary (Create img bin) Converts the Base64 data string into a binary file. Sets MIME type to image/png. Respond to Webhook (Respond to Webhook) Sends the binary image file in the HTTP response. Logging (Do anything to log) Placeholder node to log or process the id or request metadata.

You can enhance the workflow to store open events in a database, log the timestamp, IP, or user agent. Make sure to comply with data privacy and consent regulations (e.g. GDPR).

This workflow demonstrates how to merge data for different executions. The Merge Data Function node fetches the data from different executions of the RSS Feed Read node and merges them under a single object. Note: If you want to process the items that get merged, you will have to convert the single item into n8n understandable multiple items.
