Shopify Flow HTTP request does not work

Hello,

I need some help with this I use flow since 2021 to send my orders to a fullfilment center.
Since today my HTTP request does not get sent anymore.

It does not send the HTTP request anymore. When I edit the workflow it says 2 things. I need to update the HTTP request:
The relationship between a product variant and a fulfillment service was changed in the 2022-07 API version. A ProductVariant can be stocked by multiple fulfillment services. As a result, we recommend that you use the inventoryItem field if you need to determine where a product variant is stocked. If you need to determine whether a product is a gift card, then you should use product.isGiftCard. Learn more about managing inventory quantities and states.

But now I have updated it and now it says my Shopify plan cannot use HTTP requests. I used it for more than 4 years. What is this about??? It always worked, sorry but I am a little frustrated by that. Now I can never send HTTP requests anymore…

Kind regards

Hi,

I totally understand your frustration – especially if it worked for years and suddenly stops.

What you’re seeing is indeed related to Shopify plan limitations and changes over time. The HTTP request action in Shopify Flow is now restricted to certain plans, which is why it suddenly shows that your current plan no longer supports it.

One workaround we’re successfully using is the FLOW Transactional Email app. It provides its own HTTP request action for Shopify Flow, so you can continue sending requests even if your Shopify plan doesn’t support the native one anymore.

We’ve been using it for similar use cases and it works very reliably. On top of that, the support is really responsive and helpful if you run into setup issues.

Might be a good alternative so you don’t lose your automation completely :+1:

Best regards
