Auto-Fulfill Shopify Orders in Zendrop the Moment Payment Clears
When a Shopify order is marked as paid, this workflow instantly sends the order data to Zendrop via webhook to trigger dropshipping fulfillment. No manual copy-paste, no delays — orders flow automatically from checkout to fulfillment.
- 1
Trigger on Paid Shopify Orders
Add a
Shopify Triggernode and set theTopicfield toorders/paid. This node listens for Shopify's webhook and fires every time an order payment is confirmed. In the node credentials, enter your Shopify store URL and API credentials. n8n will register the webhook on Shopify automatically. - 2
Filter for Fully Paid Orders Only
Add an
IFnode connected to the Shopify Trigger. Set the condition to check that{{$json["financial_status"]}}equals the stringpaid. This prevents partially paid or pending orders from being sent to Zendrop prematurely. Route thetruebranch to the next step. - 3
Map Order Fields for Zendrop
Add a
Setnode on thetruebranch of the IF node. Create fields that Zendrop expects: setorder_idto{{$json["id"]}},customer_emailto{{$json["email"]}},shipping_addressto{{$json["shipping_address"]}}, andline_itemsto{{$json["line_items"]}}. This shapes the payload before sending it to Zendrop. - 4
Send Order to Zendrop Webhook
Add an
HTTP Requestnode connected to the Set node. SetMethodtoPOSTand paste your Zendrop webhook URL into theURLfield (found in your Zendrop dashboard under Integrations or Webhooks). SetBody Content TypetoJSONand in theBodyfield use{{$json}}to send all mapped fields. Add any required Zendrop API key in theHeaderssection asAuthorization: Bearer YOUR_ZENDROP_API_KEY.
Frequently asked questions
Where do I find my Zendrop webhook URL?
Log in to your Zendrop account and navigate to Settings > Integrations or the API/Webhooks section. Copy the endpoint URL provided there and paste it into the HTTP Request node's URL field in n8n.
What happens if the HTTP Request to Zendrop fails?
You can enable n8n's built-in retry mechanism by clicking on the HTTP Request node, going to Settings, and turning on `On Error` retry options. You can also add an error workflow in n8n settings to send yourself an email or Slack alert when any node fails.
Will this workflow send duplicate orders to Zendrop?
Shopify's `orders/paid` webhook fires once per payment confirmation, so duplicates are unlikely under normal conditions. If you want extra protection, add a second IF condition checking for a unique order ID, or log processed order IDs to a Google Sheet and filter against them before sending to Zendrop.
