Warning
The Shopify automation workflow and the Seguno abandonment template must match in order for the automation to trigger successfully. For example, if you are using the abandoned product browse workflow template in Shopify you must choose the corresponding abandoned product browse email template from Seguno.
Note
Creating a Seguno email within a Shopify marketing automation will automatically activate the automation in Seguno, but the automation will only send once it is turned on in Shopify. To begin triggering the automation, turn on the automation in Shopify.
Once you’ve created a Seguno email within a Shopify abandonment automation, you can view and edit the automation in Seguno.
To view and edit the email in Seguno:
- Navigate to the Automations page
- From the Abandonment section, select the automation
- From the Automation details page you can make additional edits to the automation
Customize the Abandoned Browse automation
Edit the wait period
The wait period determines the amount of time between the abandoned browse and the email trigger.
To edit the automation delay
- Select the workflow in Shopify, click Edit workflow
- Select the “Wait for” node
- Edit the delay settings
Edit the rest period
If a customer is a frequent visitor to your site, it is not recommended to send an abandonment email after every browse. The rest period is used to check if a customer has received an abandonment email within the defined timeframe. If a subscriber has received an email within the rest period, Seguno will not trigger the abandoned browse automation.
To edit the rest period:
- Select the workflow in Shopify, click Edit workflow
- Select the rest period node
- Edit the days since last abandonment email
- Click Edit description
- Update the text to match the new rest period
Send customized emails for specific products
For more control over the message and design, you can send an unique email based on the product browsed.

- Click the Then plus sign, select Condition
- Click Select condition
