Workflow overview
Why this workflow matters
Improves internal consulting operations and productivity. Relevant for managed services and support workflows.
This low-code automation enables all eCommerce store visitors to upload a photo of themselves and virtually “try on” a garment in just a few clicks. With this workflow, WooCommerce, Prestashop, Shopify and more merchants can offer a cutting-edge “virtual try-on” feature with minimal development effort, enhancing customer engagement and reducing product returns. Key Advantages Zero-Coding, Visual Setup** Build end-to-end e-commerce features with drag-and-drop nodes instead of custom backend code. Asynchronous, Scalable Processing** Non-blocking “Wait” + “If” loop handles multi-second AI jobs gracefully, freeing up the workflow for other tasks. Dynamic Inputs & URLs** Query strings (e.g. ?Product=IMAGE_URL) allow you to embed the form on any product page and pass the garment image on the fly. Seamless User Experience** Instant pop-up within your storefront and automatic redirect to the generated mock-up keeps shoppers engaged without page reloads. Easy Credential Management** API keys, FTP credentials, and webhook IDs are all stored securely in AlekSystem’s credential manager. How It Works Form Submission: A user submits a form with their name, an image of themselves ("Me"), and a hidden product image URL ("Product"). The form is triggered via the On form submission node, which collects the input data. Image Upload: The uploaded image ("Me") is sent to an FTP server for temporary storage using the FTP node. The filename includes a timestamp to ensure uniqueness. Virtual Try-on Request: The Create Image node sends a POST request to the Fal.run API, providing: The uploaded human image URL (from FTP). The product image URL (from the hidden form field). This generates a virtual try-on result. Result Processing: The workflow checks the status of the image generation (Get status node) in a loop (with a 10-second wait between checks) until it is marked as "COMPLETED." Once ready, the final image URL is fetched (Get Url image node) and displayed to the user via a redirect (Form node). User Experience: The user is redirected to the generated try-on image, completing the process. Set Up Steps API Key Setup: Create an account and obtain an API key. Configure the Create Image node with HTTP Header Authentication: Name: Authorization Value: Key YOURAPIKEY FTP/S3 Configuration: Set up an FTP server or S3 bucket to temporarily store uploaded user images. Configure the FTP node with your FTP credentials and storage path. Ecommerce Integration: On your WooCommerce site, add a "Try On" button that opens the form in a pop-up. Dynamically pass the product image URL as a query parameter: Example: https://URL_AlekSystem/form/ca1c314d-46c6-4eeb-b6a5-359XXXXXX?Product=IMAGE_URL Testing: Verify the workflow by submitting a test form and ensuring the virtual try-on image is generated and displayed correctly.
