Abandoned checkout - check if item(s) are subscription or not?

[ChunkySteveo]

The current scope of the abandoned checkout flow does not allow for checking the lineitem "selling_plan_id" parameter. Is there a way in Flow to query an abandoned checkout object and check if the line items are a subscription product or not?

Hello @ChunkySteveo ,

Shopify Flow doesn't directly allow you to check the selling_plan_id on abandoned checkouts. Instead, use tags or metafields to mark subscription products. Then, in Flow, check for these tags or metafields to identify subscription products in the abandoned checkout.

For example:

1. Mark subscription products with a tag like subscription.
2. In Shopify Flow, create a condition to check if the abandoned checkout line items have the subscription tag.
3. Take action based on whether the product is a subscription.
   
   Thank!

Hey Steve,

Thanks for the idea, which would be good, but we use ReCharge for subscription items, and as such - we offer the products as one-off items, or to purchase with a subscription/selling_plan. Therefore we can't distinguish between sub and non-sub products, as they (99% of them) can all be bought singularly or as a subscription plan. This is why we're needing to query if there's a selling plan associated with the line item, in the checkout object.

Thanks - Steve

Hello @ChunkySteveo ,

Lets try this method !

const lineItem = checkout.lineItems.find(item => item.id === lineItemId);

if (lineItem.selling_plan_allocation) {
  console.log('This item is part of a subscription plan.');
  // You can access the selling plan details here
  console.log(lineItem.selling_plan_allocation.selling_plan.id);
} else {
  console.log('This item is not part of a subscription plan.');
}

Thanks!

Where is that code going in the Flow? Is that part of a "Run Code" action block? If so - what's the input to be used?

Thanks.

Is that in a "Run Code" block, Steve?
