All things Shopify and commerce
Hi there,
since a while my Abandoned Checkout e-mails are not being send. The error thats appears is:
Flow action received with invalid properties. Email contains an incompatible section for the considered abandonment type (CHECKOUT).: {"status":400,"response_body":"{\"message\":\"Flow action received with invalid properties. Email contains an incompatible section for the considered abandonment type (CHECKOUT).\"}","verb":"POST","url":"https://email.sfe.shopifyinternal.com/flow/action","request_body"
Anyone a solution for this?
Same issue here, only checked today that emails haven't been sending for weeks due to this error and support is unable to offer any solution.
Here's mine:
Flow action received with invalid properties. Email contains an incompatible section for the considered abandonment type (CHECKOUT).: {"status":400,"response_body":"{\"message\":\"Flow action received with invalid properties. Email contains an incompatible section for the considered abandonment type (CHECKOUT).\"}","verb":"POST","url":"https://email.sfe.shopifyinternal.com/flow/action","request_body":" ///***order/store/customer-specific details
Looks like I was able to find the issue – the section that shows abandoned items needs to be "Abandoned checkout" specifically; it does not work if that section is "Abandoned cart".
So you should delete the "Abandoned cart" products section and add a new section, "Abandoned checkout".
Really frustrating!
Where to delete ?
and where to add ?
Hi, I also have the same issue. Did you get it?
Hi, Can you tell me about more details? Did you mean the section on email?
Thanks! For further clarification, this is a fix in the email template.
