How It Works

Automation Triggers

Automations are triggered by:

• Events: Medusa events (e.g., Copy to clipboardinventory.inventory-level.updated, Copy to clipboardproduct.updated)
• Schedule: Time-based triggers with configurable intervals
• Manual: Triggered manually from the admin panel

See Available Subscribers for a complete list of supported events.

Rules and Conditions

Each automation can have multiple rules that define when actions should be executed. Rules support primitive fields, relations (arrays), nested objects, and various operators for complex conditions.

For detailed information, see:

• Available Attributes Reference - Complete list of attributes for each event type
• Rule Operators - All supported operators with examples
• Rule Values - Supported data types and usage
• Custom Action Handlers - Extend actions with custom handlers

Actions

When automation rules pass, actions are executed. Supported action types include:

• Email: Send email notifications
• Slack: Send Slack messages with Block Kit formatting
• Custom: Extend with custom action handlers

See Actions and Slack Notification Provider in the configuration documentation for details on configuring and extending actions.

Email and Slack templates are rendered by Copy to clipboard@codee-sh/medusa-plugin-notification-emails.

Admin Panel

Access the automations management interface in Medusa Admin at Copy to clipboard/app/notifications/automations. See Admin Panel Documentation for details.
