Connect Activity to FTP and automate your tasks

Why integrate Activity with FTP

The Activity to FTP integration helps you sync data, automate manual tasks, and keep your stack aligned — without writing code.

See exactly what data flows through each step

Activity Log snapshots variables at any point in a workflow, so you can see what data was present when each step ran. When something behaves unexpectedly, the answer is already in your logs.

Build an audit trail for every order processed

Add Activity Log steps to order workflows to record what happened, when, and with which data. Every run creates a searchable record your team can reference if questions come up later.

Confirm the right data reaches each integration

Log the payload before it's sent to an external service to verify the values are correct. Catch mismatched fields, missing data, or formatting errors before they cause a sync to fail.

Receive inventory updates from your supplier

When a supplier drops a CSV on your FTP server, MESA picks it up on schedule and updates Shopify product inventory automatically. Stock levels stay accurate without manual imports or copy-paste.

Send order files to your fulfillment partner

After orders are placed, MESA generates a formatted CSV and uploads it to your 3PL's FTP server. Your fulfillment partner has what they need without manual exports or email attachments.

Sync product catalog updates from a supplier feed

MESA reads your supplier's product file on a schedule and maps the data to Shopify's format. New SKUs, updated prices, and changed descriptions land in your store without manual intervention.

Build any Activity and FTP automation

MESA helps you connect apps to automate repetitive tasks. A trigger is an event that starts a workflow, and actions are the steps that occur when it's running.
