Read receipts

A receipt is FlowRelay's durable proof artifact for an accepted event and its Shopify Flow handoff attempt.

How to use this page

Use this order when you are checking what happened to an event.

Open Event history and choose the event you want to inspect.
Check the receipt outcome, timestamp, endpoint snapshot, authentication result, validation result, and retention state.
Read the handoff status to see whether FlowRelay handed the trigger to Shopify Flow, is waiting to retry, or needs manual review.
Use the receipt's recovery code and replay availability to decide whether to wait, fix setup, replay, or share diagnostics.
When an agent is helping, have it use the same safe receipt facts instead of asking for raw event bodies or authentication headers.

How to read a receipt #

Start with the outcome, then read the safe facts that explain what FlowRelay can prove.

FlowRelay receipt showing the delivered handoff outcome, recovery and diagnostics actions, and Technical details as a collapsed disclosure. — Start with the handoff outcome and recovery options; open Technical details only when you need the safe supporting facts.

Receipt field	Meaning
Outcome	The current FlowRelay boundary result, such as Delivered, Failed, No workflow, Rejected, or Duplicate suppressed.
Endpoint snapshot	The endpoint configuration FlowRelay used for the original event.
Auth and validation	Whether the request passed authentication, required paths, mapping, and event type checks.
Handoff status	Whether FlowRelay handed the trigger to Shopify Flow.
Retention and replay	Whether retained event material is still available for a deliberate replay.

Delivered boundary #

Delivered means FlowRelay handed the trigger to Shopify Flow. It does not mean downstream Shopify Flow branches, app calls, fulfillment changes, emails, or later systems completed.

Use receipts with agents #

Authorized agents use receipt facts and diagnostics rather than asking humans for raw event bodies, full authentication headers, secrets, tokens, or private screenshots.

Custom endpoint configuration #

Automatic retries preserve the configuration accepted with the original event. A manual replay previews the current configuration and refuses confirmation if that version has changed. Public receipts and diagnostics omit expression literals and authentication settings. Custom-data sample previews are ephemeral and do not run Flow or use live-event allowance; configuration review and execution use existing action allowances. Custom values in retained delivery data follow the same plan retention and access rules as the rest of the event.

Handoff boundary

Delivered means FlowRelay handed the trigger to Shopify Flow. It does not mean downstream Shopify Flow branches, app calls, fulfillment changes, emails, or later systems completed.
