# Connect Paths to Web Request and automate your tasks

## Why integrate Paths with Web Request

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

### 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.

### Serve Shopify data to any storefront or app

Web Request creates a callable URL that runs a full MESA workflow and returns the result. Use it to serve customer metadata, product details, or stored records directly to your storefront or custom app.

### Proxy API calls and keep credentials server-side

Route sensitive API calls through MESA so credentials never touch the client. Web Request handles the external call and returns the response — no middleware or custom server required.

### Build logic-driven redirects for any URL

Web Request can return a 301 or 302 redirect as its response, letting you build workflow-powered routing. Send visitors to personalized landing pages, conditional destinations, or post-action URLs.

## Build any Paths and Web Request 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.
