Gumroad

Resool Team · · 4 min read

Gumroad is a platform for creators to sell digital products, courses and memberships. Connecting Gumroad to Resool shows each buyer's Gumroad purchases with product, price and refund status next to the conversation, lets agents share your products in a reply, and lets workflows start automatically when a sale, a refund or a membership cancellation comes in.

What you can do with Gumroad

In the Inbox and on the contact page

  • Customer details: what the buyer has spent with you and how many purchases they made.
  • Orders: the buyer's purchases with date, product, total and payment status (for example Paid or Refunded). Hover a purchase to see the product.
  • Share product: search your Gumroad products and copy a ready-made message with the product's name, price and link.
  • Open in Gumroad to jump to your Gumroad sales.

In Workflows

  • Start a workflow when Gumroad sends a sale, a refund or a cancelled membership: Order Created, Order Paid, Order Status Changed, Order Cancelled and Order Refunded.

Before you begin

  • You need a Gumroad account that sells products.
  • In Resool, only workspace Owners and Admins can connect apps.
  • Gumroad shares the buyer's email, not their phone number. Purchases are matched to a contact by email address only, so the contact needs the email the buyer used on Gumroad.

  1. Go to Settings › Apps.
  2. Find Gumroad under Available now (or open the E-commerce tab) and click Connect.

How to use Gumroad in Workflows

  1. In Workflows, click the trigger, choose the E-commerce group and pick the Event.
  2. Set Store to Gumroad (or Any connected store).

What each Gumroad notification starts:

Gumroad notificationTriggers that start
New saleOrder Created, Order Paid and Order Status Changed (Paid)
RefundOrder Refunded
Membership cancelledOrder Cancelled and Order Status Changed (Cancelled)

The workflow runs for the contact with the buyer's email, and creates a contact when there is none. Messages can use {{order.number}}, {{order.total}}, {{order.currency}}, {{order.items}}, {{order.refund_amount}} and {{customer.name}}.

Gumroad doesn't allow other apps to change sales, so the Update order status, Add order tag or note and Create or update customer steps aren't available for Gumroad.

How to disconnect Gumroad

  1. Go to Settings › Apps and click Disconnect on the Gumroad card.
  2. Confirm in the Disconnect Gumroad? dialog.

Resool stops accessing your Gumroad account. Contacts already in Resool stay.

FAQ and troubleshooting

Why doesn't a buyer's purchase show up?

Purchases are matched by email only.

What you can do:

  • Add the email the buyer used on Gumroad to the contact.
  • If the buyer used a different email for a later purchase, add that email instead.

Does a workflow start for past sales?

No. Workflows start on sales, refunds and cancellations Gumroad sends after you connect it.

Can I change or refund a sale from Resool?

No. Gumroad doesn't let other apps change sales. Open the sale in Gumroad to refund it.
