My apologies about the low tier question.
For context, I have just completed both the beginner and intermediate make academy courses and I’m still having trouble wrapping my head around how to build a simple workflow where once a customer pays for an order through Shopify, that customer will receive an email with their tracking information.
I’m pretty sure i need to select the Shopify “New Event” as the trigger? And then after that im stuck as that event trigger, gives me a Shopify webhook and after that im lost in regards to which module i need to add after that, before the email module.
Any help / guidance would be much appreciated! Thank you!
To achieve your goal, after setting the Shopify “New Event” as the trigger, add a “Search for Order” module to retrieve the order details, and then use the “Send Email” module to send the tracking information to the customer.

Thank you so much for the response and clarity!!
I just set it all up and the very first module that is apparently the first trigger, doesn’t actually TRIGGER when an order is placed for the “New Event” module. It only seems to work when i manually click “Run Once” and THEN the “New Event” module will then start buffering AKA searching for data and then once that order is placed (after i manually selected the "run once button), the workflow will work BUT i dont want to have to manually login into make and select “Run Once” everytime after i recive an new order on my shopify store to have the automation on stand by. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Do i need to setup a new scenario?
Welcome to the Make community!
You just turn on the scenario, save it, and exit the scenario editor.
It will continue to receive and process event webhook requests.
Turn your scenario off and then on again. It will prompt you to delete all the data in the queue, or process all the older requests first.
