How it works
Match an HTTP header
Start a flow when a request carries a header key and value you care about.
- Set the header key (and optional value) in the rule.
- Wire the rule into a Flow Builder condition.
- Ask the storefront with that header on the request.
- See the flow run when the header matches.
Match a URL parameter
React to campaign or tracking query parameters without custom storefront code.
- Set the GET parameter key (and optional value).
- Wire it into your flow conditions.
- Ask the storefront with ?key=value on the URL.
- See the flow match the parameter.
Match a cookie
Use browser cookies as Flow Builder conditions for returning visitors or A/B flags.
- Set the cookie name (and optional value).
- Wire the cookie rule into the flow.
- Ask the storefront with that cookie present.
- See the flow evaluate the cookie.
Gate a storefront page path
Run flows before a page loads and redirect visitors when a path glob matches.
- Set a path glob such as /account/*.
- Wire the page-before-load event and redirect action.
- Ask the storefront by opening a matching URL.
- See the gate redirect (or allow) as configured.
Manage flows from the list
Enable or disable flows quickly and filter by status, trigger, and action.
- Set filters in the flow list sidebar.
- Wire bulk or context-menu enable/disable.
- Ask for the flows you need with the filters on.
- See active and inactive flows at a glance.
Keep steps when changing triggers
Change a flow’s trigger without losing every compatible action.
- Set a new trigger on an existing flow.
- Wire through the keep-compatible-steps prompt.
- Ask which steps stay and which must go.
- See compatible steps retained after the change.
Why it stands out
Request context rules
Match HTTP headers, URL parameters, and cookies in Flow Builder conditions.
Storefront page gate
Run flows before a page loads, match path globs, and redirect with an optional notice.
Faster flow list
Enable or disable flows from the list, filter by status and trigger, keep compatible steps on trigger change.
Free and standalone
No charge. Works alone; combine with Advanced Cart Flows when you need cart automation.
