Your team and connected tools have the full picture before the return is even completed. ### Trigger retention workflows the moment a return is filed When a customer initiates a return in Loop, MESA kicks off the right response — a Klaviyo win-back flow, a Slack alert to the right team member, a loyalty point adjustment in Rivo. You act on the signal while the customer relationship is still recoverable. ### Route high-value return events to your team before they escalate When a VIP customer, a large-order return, or a repeat returner is flagged in Loop, MESA notifies the right person through Slack or email with the order context already attached. Your team responds before the situation becomes a churn event. ### Route orders by value, tag, or product type When an order is placed, Paths evaluates its conditions and sends it down the right branch. High-value orders, wholesale accounts, and standard fulfillment each follow a tailored sequence — without manual sorting. ### Give VIP customers a different experience MESA identifies customers by tag, order history, or location and routes them through the appropriate path. First-time buyers, loyalty members, and wholesale accounts each get the right follow-up automatically. ### Handle fulfillment exceptions without manual triage When a fulfillment event fires, Paths checks whether it's a standard shipment, expedited, or backorder and routes each to the correct next step. Your team only gets involved when it actually matters. ## Build any Loop Returns and Paths 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. ###### Label Created or Updated Starts when a label is created or modified. - Topic - Trigger - Return ID - Order ID - Provider Order ID - Carrier - Tracking Number - Label Status - Label Updated At ###### Restock Requested Starts when a restock is requested. - Topic - Trigger - ID - Order ID - Provider Order ID - Restock Items ###### Return Created or Updated Starts when a return is created or modified. - Topic - Trigger - ID - State - Created At - Order ID - Order Name - Provider Order ID - Order Number - Customer - Currency - Return Product Total - Return Discount Total - Return Tax Total - Return Total - Return Credit Total - Exchange Product Total - Exchange Discount Total - Exchange Tax Total - Exchange Total - Exchange Credit Total - Gift Card - Handling Fee - Refund - Upsell - Line Items - Exchanges - Carrier - Tracking Number - Label Status - Label Updated At ###### Paths Create if / else conditions for more precise flow controls. ###### Cancel Return Cancel a return. ###### Close Return Close a return. ###### Create Blacklist Create a blacklist. - Type - Value - Secondary Value ###### Create Order Link Generate an order link that will take the user directly to their order. - Designation - Name - Zip ###### Create Whitelist Create a whitelist. - Type - Value - Secondary Value ###### Delete Blacklist Remove a blacklist. ###### Delete Whitelist Remove a whitelist. ###### Flag Return Mark a return. ###### List Blacklist Obtain a list of blacklists. - Current Page - Data - From - Last Page - Next Page URL - Path - Per Page - Prev Page URL - To - Total ###### List Details of Return Obtain a list of return details. - ID - Created At - Order ID - Order Name - Order Number - State - Currency - Refund - Gift Card - Exchange - Return Total - Line Items - Customer Email - Carrier - Label Status - Label Updated At - Tracking Number ###### List Packages Return Obtain a list of all packages by tracking statuses or timeframe. - ID - Created At - Updated At - Return Line Item ID - Order ID - Order Name - State - Customer Email - Title - Sku - Carrier - Label Status - Label Updated At - Tracking Number ###### List Returns Return Obtain a list of returns that were created within a given timeframe. - ID - State - Created At - Updated At - Order ID - Order Name - Provider Order ID - Order Number - Customer - Currency - Return Product Total - Return Discount Total - Return Tax Total - Return Total - Return Credit Total - Exchange Product Total - Exchange Discount Total - Exchange Tax Total - Exchange Total - Exchange Credit Total - Gift Card - Handling Fee - Refund - Upsell - Line Items - Exchanges - Carrier - Tracking Number - Label Status - Label Updated At ###### List Whitelist Obtain a list of whitelists. - Current Page - Data - From - Last Page - Next Page URL - Path - Per Page - Prev Page URL - To - Total ###### Process Return Return the funds to the customer. ###### Retrieve Blacklist Grab all details about the blacklist. - ID - Created At - Type - Value - Secondary Value ###### Retrieve Whitelist Grab all details about the whitelist. - ID - Created At - Type - Value - Secondary Value ## Expert support included MESA includes hands-on support from automation experts who know how to get things done. ### Free workflow setup We'll build your first workflow with you live.
