Shopify Flow list of products created 30 days ago

Shopify Plus

Topic summary

A user is attempting to create a Shopify Flow that sends a daily email listing products still in stock that were created exactly 30 days ago. Despite trying multiple approaches, including using date filters like {{scheduled_at: created_at='minus_date: 30 days'}}, the flow either returns a blank list or all products—never just those created 30 days prior.

Key Challenge:

  • The standard date filtering options in Shopify Flow (e.g., “created within last 30 days”) don’t isolate products created on a specific date in the past.

Responses:

  • One commenter suggests Shopify Flow lacks native daily scheduled triggers and operates primarily through event-based triggers. They mention having to build a custom solution using Shopify API credentials and Power Automate for similar automation needs.
  • The original poster clarifies that Shopify Flow does support scheduled/repeating triggers, as they successfully use them for other weekly update flows—but this particular flow isn’t functioning correctly.

Status: The issue remains unresolved, with no working solution identified within Shopify Flow’s native capabilities.

I’m trying to setup a flow that emails me daily with a list of products that are still on stock that were created 30 days ago. I can’t seem to get it to work. I’ve tried several different options, even trying to work from their standard options of created within last 30 days. I either get a blank list or a list of all products, but never just products created exactly 30 days ago.

created_at:=‘{{ scheduledAt | date_minus: “30 day” }}’

Hi, I hope you’re doing well. If you are trying to create a flow that runs daily, it won’t be possible because Shopify Flow does not have events that trigger on a daily basis at a specific time; it operates with triggers that are fired by events. I had to do something similar, but I had to create an application in Shopify to obtain API credentials and automate that process using Power Automate.

Shopify Flow does offer a scheduled time trigger that you can setup as a repeat. I have several other flows that send me weekly updates based on a schedule trigger. I just can’t get this one to work properly.
