Get notified when a draft order is paid and parts need to be ordered - Shopify Flow

Hey guys

I’m having trouble trying to set up a notification and Asana task for my team to order parts when a draft order gets paid.

The flow in the picture is not working at all, it never gets past the sub channel check. Is it possible to do a check for draft orders instead checking that it’s not “Online Store”?

I must be doing something completely wrong?

Even if there’s a way to tag draft orders that would help immensely bc I could go Order Paid > Check for “Draft order tag” > check if unfulfilled > Action the notifications.

However I tried to tag draft orders and it says you can’t add “order” tags, you can only add “draft order” tags.

I see this being a problem if the “Draft Order Tags” drop off when it’s converted to an order because as soon as the draft order is created and the invoice is sent, it converts to an order automatically and then my flow wouldn’t work once it’s paid. Does anyone know whether draft order tags stay when the draft order is converted to an order?

Hopefully I’m just overthinking this and someone here can help, cheers!

Hi Cody_D,

Draft Order Tags should persist on an Order after it’s created. I just tested it on my Shop and it seemed to work OK!

Otherwise, you could consider looking at the Order -> Events object and checking if any of the message fields contain created this order from draft order**.**

Hope that helps!

Thanks Dave

I’ve just checked the tagging that I setup when I posted this and an order has since gone from drafts to become and order and the tag did persist as you said!

This should solve my problem, appreciate the reply!
