Assemblified
AssemblifiedAssemblifiedA bill of materials (BOM) management app for Shopify. Connected to Alertified, it lets you set alerts on stock that Shopify cannot see: virtual materials and the pre-assembled stock of BOMs and sub-assemblies. Read more → is a bill of materials (BOM) management app for Shopify. Some of the stock it tracks never shows up in Shopify, so Shopify cannot report when it runs low. Connect Assemblified to Alertified and you can set alerts on that stock too, with thresholds, recipients and channels like any other alert.
What the connection adds
Section titled “What the connection adds”With the connection on, Alertified can alert on three kinds of Assemblified stock:
| Assemblified item | What the alert watches | | --- | --- | | Virtual materialVirtual materialA raw material tracked only in Assemblified, with no Shopify product behind it, such as glue or packaging. With the Assemblified connection, Alertified can alert on its stock. Read more → | The stock of a raw material that exists only in Assemblified, with no Shopify product behind it. | | Sub-assemblySub-assemblyA building block that Assemblified uses inside bigger bills of materials. Assemblified's own screens call it a subassembly, defined by an assembly BOM. Read more → | The pre-assembled stockPre-assembled stockUnits of a BOM's finished product or of a sub-assembly that are already built and on the shelf, as Assemblified counts them. Alertified can alert when this stock runs low. Read more → of a sub-assembly. | | BOM | The pre-assembled stock of a BOM’s finished product. |
Assemblified tells Alertified each time the stock of one of these items changes. Alertified then checks the alerts on that item the same way it checks a Shopify stock change: an alert fires when the stock is at or below its threshold, and it is ready again after the stock goes back above it. See How alerts fire.
Assemblified alerts use the same notification channels as your other alerts: email, Telegram, Discord, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Webhook and ntfy.
What you need
Section titled “What you need”- Assemblified installed on the same Shopify store as Alertified, with an Assemblified subscription.
- Alertified’s Enhanced plan, at $10 a month or $100 a year. See Plans and free trial and Billing.
Connect
Section titled “Connect”You can connect from either app. The connection is one setting shared by both, so connecting in one app connects the other too.
- In Alertified, open Settings and select the Integrations tab.
- Find the Assemblified card. Its badge reads Disconnected.
- Click Connect to Assemblified. The badge changes to Connected.
If Assemblified is not installed on your store, the card shows “You need an active Assemblified subscription to enable this integration. Install Assemblified from the Shopify App Store to get started.” and Connect to Assemblified is unavailable. Get Assemblified opens its Shopify App Store listing.
- In Assemblified, open Settings → Integrations and find the Alertified section. Its badge reads Not connected.
- Click Connect to Alertified. Assemblified confirms with “Connected to Alertified”.
Connect to Alertified stays unavailable until Alertified is installed and on the Enhanced plan. Until then the section shows “Alertified is not installed” or “Alertified needs the Enhanced plan”. See Assemblified’s Alertified page for the Assemblified side.
Once connected, Select Assemblified items is available on Alertified’s create page. Continue with Alerts on Assemblified items.
Disconnect
Section titled “Disconnect”- From Alertified: on Settings → Integrations, click Disconnect from Assemblified. The badge changes to Disconnected.
- From Assemblified: on Settings → Integrations, click Disconnect from Alertified and confirm. Assemblified explains: “Alertified stops receiving inventory changes for virtual materials, BOMs and subassemblies, so their stock alerts stop updating.”
After you disconnect, Assemblified stops sending stock changes, so the alerts on Assemblified items stop updating and no longer fire. The alerts themselves stay in Alertified’s list. Delete them there if you no longer need them, or reconnect to have them update again. While the connection is off, Select Assemblified items on the create page is unavailable, with the hint “Enable the Assemblified integration in Settings to use this feature”.
Assemblified alerts in the alerts list
Section titled “Assemblified alerts in the alerts list”Alerts on Assemblified items sit in the Stock Alerts list next to your Shopify alerts. A source badge on each alert tells them apart:
| Badge | Alert on | | --- | --- | | Shopify | A Shopify product variant. | | Material | A virtual material. | | Sub-Asm | A sub-assembly’s pre-assembled stock. | | BOM Pre-Asm | A BOM’s pre-assembled stock. | | Asm | Another item, set up from inside Assemblified, such as a Shopify-backed raw material or a BOM’s Shopify variant. |
A product row that groups alerts from different sources shows Mixed. The product and variant columns both show the Assemblified item’s name.
To see only Assemblified alerts, use the source filter: Assemblified shows all of them, and Material, Sub-Assembly and BOM Preassembled show one kind each. All sources clears the filter. See The alerts list.
You edit and delete Assemblified alerts in Alertified the same way as any other alert. See Edit and delete alerts.
Assemblified alerts in notifications
Section titled “Assemblified alerts in notifications”A notification for an Assemblified item names the kind of item where a Shopify alert has its product link:
| Item | Label in the notification | | --- | --- | | Virtual material | Raw Material | | Sub-assembly | Sub-Assembly | | BOM | BOM Product |
Email, Telegram, Discord, Slack, Microsoft Teams and ntfy messages carry this label and no link to a Shopify product, because the item has no product page in Shopify. On the Webhook channel, the request marks the item as an Assemblified item and has no product link. See Webhook payloads.
Assemblified’s stock changes also appear in Logs → Webhooks, next to the stock updates from Shopify. See Logs.
