Goal: Automate weekly emails via Shopify Flow listing low‑stock items, but prefer product-level listings over variant-level. Two issues raised: emails show “default title” for products without variants, and notifications should target only specific product types or collections.
Context: Shopify Flow is an automation tool; the low-stock template returns variants (individual options under a product), which can lead to less readable outputs.
Proposed solutions:
Replace “default title” context by ensuring clearer product titles or using tags/metafields to provide meaningful labels pulled into the email.
Limit scope with Flow conditions:
• Condition: Product Type is [specified type].
• Condition: Product is in Collection [specified collection].
Status: Practical guidance provided (no code snippet). No confirmation of implementation success yet; discussion remains open. No media or attachments are central to understanding.

I’d like to set up a Shopify Flow to send weekly inventory emails listing all products that are low in stock. While Shopify Flow offers this template, it currently only lists product variants rather than the products themselves. There are two challenges I need help addressing:
For products without variants, the email displays “default title,” which isn’t ideal. Could you assist me in resolving this?
I’d like the notification to apply only to specific product types or collections.
Could you please share a solution for these issues? Thank you!
For products without variants showing “default title,” you can improve this by using meaningful product titles or leveraging tags/metafields for better context in the email.
To filter notifications for specific product types or collections, add a condition step in your flow:
Condition: Product Type is [your product type].
Condition: Product is in Collection [your collection].
