Conditional Visibility based on products ordered

Hey, I’ve been stuck on this for a few hours — I’m looking for ways to show custom content blocks based on products recently purchased. Each content block links to a “How to use PRODUCT” article on the website. Therefore, if customer purchases a product that contains the word “Spray” in the title, they get shown the relevant content block which links to the correct article. Here’s the formats I’ve tried:‘Spray’ in event.Items"Spray" in event.best sellers'Spray' in event|lookup:Items"SPRAY" in event.ITEMSevent.Items|default:'Spray' {{ event.Items|default:Stick }}lookup.Items|default:'Spray' 'Spray' in person|lookup:Itemevent.Items|0:'Spray'

Need to send product info

I have setup manuals/videos  that need to get to my clients and when they don’t want marketing it is creating a big problem. They aren’t getting all their tools. It said to contact you all. I need to get them their stuff. I set up all of these flows so I don’t have to send all of this when they place an order and now I have to send it all.

Question Regarding Exiting Abandoned Cart Flow

Hi all,I have created an abandoned cart flow with different structured emails depending on the product.The trigger for the flow is ‘Checkout Started’. Should I add a conditional split ‘Has placed order at least once since starting the flow’ where ‘yes’ exits the flow and ‘no’ leads to the next email or will Klaviyo automatically stop the flow if a customer does indeed place an order? Thank you in advance!

Updating flows doesn't update the 'last updated' section?

Hi everyone,Just wondering with the newer klaviyo, when you update a flow do you need to meet certain requirements for the ‘last updated’ to update?For example I just changed the subject line and preview text, as well as the content in one of the emails, but when I leave (even after refreshing cookies/waiting), it still lists the old ‘last updated’ time. I love the feature but need to use it to keep up to date with what’s actually updated and which of the flows are older.Thanks!

Problem with Post-Purchase Flow Set-up Using List Trigger

I’ve attached a screen shot of how one of my post-purchase email flows is set up.  Originally, I created these flows and none of them were triggering.  I was advised to change the type pulldown from “text” to “list”.  This helped, but only for some post-purchase product flows. Even though all of them are set up the same, some of the products are still not getting triggered.  Specifically, when I changed the Type pulldown from text to list, a list of some of my products appeared and I was able to select the correct one.  But sometimes the product did not appear in the list of products.  So instead of selecting it, I typed it in.  I made sure the wording exactly matches the product name.  It is for all of these products, the ones where I had to type it in, the flows are not working.Here’s what it looks like when the list of products appears but some products are missing.My guess is this has something to do with those products not appearing in the list of products that appeared.  How is t

Pop ups form linking to welcome series?

Hello -We implemented a sign-up form pop-up on our site over the weekend which would directly link to the welcome series flow we have built (flow has been active for a while we just included the new email). We included a 10% discount code in the welcome series that was mentioned in the pop-up. Over the weekend we actually had older members in our master list within the welcome series receive and use the code. Is there something we have missed here setting up the pop up and linking to the welcome series?Cheers!

A customer received an abandoned cart email after ordering: Why this happens and how to fix it

With Abandoned Cart Flows, it’s best practice to send your email before your customer orders the product they “abandoned”. Sometimes though, things don’t work quite the way they should and customers might receive an abandoned cart email after ordering. Let’s take a look at some possible reasons, and how to address them.There are four reasons that your customers may still receive an Abandoned Cart email after placing an order.Your time delay between a customer starting a checkout and the first email of the flow is not long enough. We recommend waiting approximately 4 hours before sending the first abandoned cart email. Whatever you choose for your flow, you'll want to make sure it's enough time for the integration to sync. For more information, head to our article on How Often Integrations Sync.  Your customer triggered multiple checkout started events but only placed one order. Each time your customer triggers a checkout started event, they enter your flow.  Your events are coming in o

Back-populating flow issue

Hi :) Yesterday I back-populated my VIP-flow, and clicked the “Schedule for each step relative to when I click the back-populate button”.   Then the subscribers where supposed to, receive the first e-mail in the flow this morning at 09.00 am. And yesterday everything looked fine, all the subscribers appeared in “waiting” at the first email in the flow. However, when I just checked the flow, non-of the subscribers have received the first mail (nor does it say they were skipped), but now they appear in “waiting” on the second mail of the flow???? (I turned the flow off, now to make sure they don’t receive the second mail).

Email Flow is not sending

I imported emails into a list and created a flow of emails. But the flow is not sending emails to the people on the list. I cannot change the trigger where it says “People will enter this flow when they subscribe”, but I added a Flow filter (please see the pic). What am I doing wrong? In the list, the Opt in process is set to “Single opt-in”

Can I remove profiles from a list during a flow?

Hi,We are giving our users some reward points 3 weeks after their first purchase to encourage a repeat purchase. When we deposit the points we add the profile to a specific list in Klaviyo so we know who has been recently given points.  We use Loyalty Lion and I want to use the ‘Reward available’ trigger to send our own emails notifying customers they have enough points for a reward. I want to build a filter into this flow that sends people who have just been given the rewards a different email to people who have earned the rewards organically.  So I want to use a conditional split to send people who are on the list we created a different email to people who are not on the list. But for this to work we need to remove them them from the list once they have that email so next time they enter the flow organically they get the normal rewards available email.  I hope that makes sense!

Hey! I need help regarding Klaviyo.

I'm new to Klaviyo and having a hard time with it. I'm trying to create five emails: Return Request Confirmation, Return Request Update Confirmation, Password Reset, Account Verification, and Order Modification. However, I can't figure out which triggers to choose for these transactional emails in Klaviyo Flow, and what conditions to apply. If anyone is familiar with this or has faced the same problem, I'm all ears. Thank you!

Dynamic product feeds show old products and browse abandonment shows products in wrong language.

Hello!I have 2 questions. I work with multiple language shop in Magento2.First question.Browse abandonment flow sends e-mails with products in wrong language. For example I have put up 3 different flows for different languages. I have conditional split with MagentoWebsiteID for different languages. Still sometimes it sends e-mails with product in wrong language. Second question.Dynamic product feeds shows old or out of stock products. We have a lot of products and I have avoided sending out e-mails with dynamic product feeds, because of this error.The stock variable also does not seem to work and Klaviyo finds products that are not in stock. What could be wrong?  Thank you!
