Send promotion emails with Shopify Orders at random

Discount codes are a great way to build customer loyalty. Even better, adding a layer of chance adds an element of excitement to the order.

In this episode we show you how to generate promotional emails from your Shopify orders without adding any apps to your store.

You can control how chances each order has of triggering a discount code in an email. Or you can remove this random portion altogether for a post-purchase email message.

Below is the code snippet for the Node.js step to generate a random number. Just create a new Node.js step in Pipedream and replace the scaffolding with this code snippet:

// Random Number generator Node.js step code

export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    minimum: { type: 'string' },
    maximum: { type: 'string' }
  },
  async run({ steps, $ }) {
    const max = parseInt(this.maximum);
    const min = parseInt(this.minimum);

    return Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min + 1) + min);
  },
})

Then click "Refresh Fields" to generate the inputs to pick the lower and upper limits.
