Quick Start

1. Register the Plugin

Add to your medusa-config.ts:

module.exports = defineConfig({ plugins: [ "@codee-sh/medusa-plugin-automations" ] })

2. Run Migrations

The plugin includes database migrations for automation models. Run migrations to set up the required tables:

medusa migrations run

How It Works

Automation Triggers

Automations are triggered by:

  • Events: Medusa events (e.g., inventory.inventory-level.updated, product.updated)
  • Schedule: Time-based triggers with configurable intervals
  • Manual: Triggered manually from the admin panel

See Available Subscribers  for a complete list of supported events.

Rules and Conditions

Each automation can have multiple rules that define when actions should be executed. Rules support primitive fields, relations (arrays), nested objects, and various operators for complex conditions.

For detailed information, see:

Actions

When automation rules pass, actions are executed. Supported action types include:

  • Email: Send email notifications
  • Slack: Send Slack messages with Block Kit formatting
  • Custom: Extend with custom action handlers

See Actions  and Slack Notification Provider  in the configuration documentation for details on configuring and extending actions.

Email and Slack templates are rendered by @codee-sh/medusa-plugin-notification-emails.

Admin Panel

Access the automations management interface in Medusa Admin at /app/notifications/automations. See Admin Panel Documentation  for details.
