How to set up the integration
Go to the Omnisend App Market and search for Alloy or you can simply open this page:
Once you're on the Alloy integration page, click the 'Connect now' button:
The API key will be generated automatically. Copy it and proceed to the Alloy account, but don't click the 'Confirm' button and don't close the page yet.
Once you have the API key, create a new workflow in Alloy (you can start from scratch or use one of the recipes that include the Omnisend block already).
Inside the workflow editor, you'll need to select the trigger as 1st block inside your workflow. It'll identify when this workflow should work (e.g. trigger this workflow once an hour or every time new order is placed in Shopify).
Choose Omnisend as the second block in your workflow by clicking on the + icon next to the trigger:
Choose any action that you want to happen inside Omnisend, when the workflow is triggered inside the Alloy, such as Create Contact:
In the next step, click 'Add a new account' and paste your Omnisend credentials into the field then press Validate
Proceed to the next step and fill in all the fields that you want to pass to Omnisend.
The last step is to go back to the Alloy page in the App Market and click 'Confirm':
