# Connect Gatsby to ShipStation and automate your tasks

## Why integrate Gatsby with ShipStation

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

### Add Instagram subscribers to Shopify as customers automatically

When a follower subscribes through a Gatsby Instagram campaign, MESA creates or updates their record in Shopify. Your store knows about the customer from the moment they raise their hand on Instagram, before they ever place an order.

### Trigger a welcome flow the moment someone subscribes via Instagram

When a new subscriber joins through a Gatsby DM campaign, MESA sends the signal to Klaviyo and starts the right onboarding sequence. Your first impression lands while the engagement is still warm, not after a sync cycle.

### Tag Shopify customers based on which Gatsby campaign acquired them

When a subscriber joins through a specific Gatsby campaign — a giveaway, a product launch, a keyword trigger — MESA applies the corresponding Shopify tag to their customer record. Your segments reflect how each customer was acquired without anyone managing attribution manually.

### Push every Shopify order to ShipStation the moment it's placed

When an order comes in, MESA sends it to ShipStation with the right shipping method, carrier, and fulfillment rules already applied. Your team picks up a ready-to-ship order, not a configuration task.

### Route orders to the right warehouse based on what's in the cart

When an order contains specific products, a wholesale flag, or a regional destination, MESA reads the details and sends it to the correct ShipStation fulfillment location. Every order reaches the right facility without manual sorting.

### Update Shopify the moment ShipStation marks an order shipped

When ShipStation generates a tracking number and marks an order fulfilled, MESA writes the update back to Shopify and triggers any downstream actions — a Klaviyo notification, a customer tag, a loyalty point. Your post-purchase workflow starts the moment fulfillment does.

## Build any Gatsby and ShipStation 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.
