Flow to tag orders based on Shipping Zip Code

[Martin_B]

Hi Guys,

We tried setting up a simple flow to check the shipping zip code and apply a tag to the order accordingly.

We setup a flow as follows:

Start when → Order Created
Check if → Shipping address zip starts with: Then a comma-separated list.
Do this → Add order tags

The flow didn’t work and after reaching out to support they suggested that we can’t use a comma-separated list with the ‘Check if’ condition.

Instead, they have suggested we add a ‘Run code’ action at this point instead to check the order shipping zip code.

I am not technical and have viewed the templates available, but none of them seem close enough to edit and try and make work.

I’m sure this is a fairly simple script for someone with some knowledge. Could anyone help out on this?

Thanks in advance.

Check if → Shipping address zip starts with: Then a comma-separated list.

As support said, this isn’t how this condition operator works. You cannot use a comma-separated list

If you need to use multiple “starts with”, you can add them as separate criteria in the condition.

Hi Paul,

Thanks for the reply. We have over 250 post codes that ‘start with’.

I think this is why support suggested a Run Code to check these instead of listing over 250 seperate conditions.

If you plan to add more over time, I think I would instead try to store them as shop metafields, which you can now create and edit in Admin/Settings.

Here’s the code if you used a shop metafield. I haven’t tested it, but should get you closer.

If you didn’t use a metafield, then you could replace the shop metafield with a list like
[“13434”, “54333”]
