Flow that cross sells same color variant

Question

I am trying to determine if it is possible within a flow to dynamically generate color variants of a product based on the color variant of a product previously purchased.

For example, someone purchases an orange bag. Instead of just sending them an email upselling them a wallet, I want to upsell them an orange wallet to match their bag.

I’m guessing I will be using Ordered Product as a trigger of the flow.

Unfortunately, it really isn’t practical to target the variant color data in the Ordered Product event and use Show/Hide functionality to show the wallet in the corresponding colors. There are many colors and they are updated frequently.

Wondering if anyone had any thoughts here?

​@conbohannan, this seems like it could be a good use case for a custom flow action -https://developers.klaviyo.com/en/docs/add_a_custom_action_to_a_flow. This is currently only available to customers with >400k profiles.Essentially, you can write a python function (Chatgpt/Claude are great at this!) that you could use to create an output like product_variant_html. Then you would use that output in your email template. See this bit here in the doc -https://developers.klaviyo.com/en/docs/add_a_custom_action_to_a_flow#4-use-outputs-in-your-email-templatesWith this approach, you’d just have one block you show for the recommended upsell product and you do the heavy-lifting in the custom action.Hope this helps!Cadence/Book a demo
