# Use XFlow with Shopify Flow

XFlow integrates with [Shopify Flow](https://apps.shopify.com/flow), allowing you to connect your XFlow workflows with advanced Shopify automations.

You can choose which nodes in XFlow should trigger Shopify Flow events.

<Hint type="info" title="Before you begin">

Make sure you have:

* Shopify Flow app installed
* Create at least one active workflow or campaign in XFlow

</Hint>

## How Shopify Flow integration works

Inside the XFlow workflow editor, supported action nodes or event include a **Trigger Shopify flow** option.

When enabled, XFlow sends an event to Shopify Flow whenever that action runs.

You can then use that event as a trigger in Shopify Flow to build additional automations.

### Available workflow action triggers

<Table widths="270,auto">

| Action node | Description |
| --- | --- |
| Customer signup | Triggered when a customer subscribes through XFlow's Notify me widget |
| Send email | Triggered when XFlow sends an email |
| Send internal email | Triggered when XFlow sends an internal notification |
| Send push notification | Triggered when XFlow sends a push notification |
| Create discount code | Triggered when a discount code is created |
| Add customer tags | Triggered when customer tags are added |
| Update subscription status | Triggered when a subscription status changes |
| Wait | Triggered when a wait step is executed |
| New order placed | Triggered when an order is created through XFlow |

</Table>

### What you can do with Shopify Flow + XFlow
