How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Customer inquiry receivedtrigger

Email arrives in support inbox or chat message received containing order-related keywords. The automation platform captures the message and extracts customer contact and query details.

2. Extract customer and query data

The automation parses the incoming message to identify the customer email, order number or name, and the specific question type (status, tracking, return, refund). the automation normalizes the data for lookup.

3. Fetch order

The automation queries using the customer email or order number to retrieve order details including status, items, order date, and customer name.

4. Fetch tracking

The automation queries to retrieve the tracking number, carrier, current shipment status, and estimated delivery date for the order.

5. Determine response type

A decision node evaluates whether the query is a simple status/tracking question or a complex issue like a return, refund, or complaint that requires human review.

6. Generate and send auto-response

For routine queries, the automation composes a personalized response email with order and tracking details, then sends it to the customer.

7. Log ticket and close

The automation creates a ticket record with the customer inquiry, response sent, and relevant order data, then marks the ticket as resolved.

8. Route complex issues

For non-routine queries, the automation creates a high-priority ticket with full context and assigns it to an available support for manual handling.
