Connect Algolia to FTP and automate your tasks

Why integrate Algolia with FTP

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

Keep your Algolia search index current as your catalog changes

When a product is added, updated, or removed in Shopify, MESA syncs the change to Algolia automatically. Your customers search against an accurate catalog without scheduled reindexing or manual pushes between updates.

Reflect inventory and pricing changes in search results instantly

When stock runs out or a price changes in Shopify, MESA updates the corresponding Algolia record in real time. Your search results never surface products customers can't buy at the price they expect.

Trigger Shopify workflows from what customers search for

When a customer's search behavior in Algolia signals intent — a repeated query, a zero-results search, a high-converting term — MESA kicks off the right action in Shopify. Your store responds to what customers are looking for, not just what they buy.

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 Algolia 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.
