Automated KlickTipp to Gmail: Send Transactional Emails

Description

Community Node Disclaimer: This workflow uses KlickTipp community nodes.

How It Works

Automate transactional emails from KlickTipp to Gmail
This workflow receives contact data from a KlickTipp Outbound rule, generates a personalized HTML email, and sends it via Gmail. Key fields (e.g., first name, company, website, phone, or other custom fields) are dynamically mapped into the body. After sending, the workflow saves the email’s HTML content and writes back an Email delivery status (“Sent” or “Failed”) to the contact in KlickTipp for clear visibility.

Key Features

KlickTipp Outbound Trigger
Starts when a KlickTipp Outbound rule calls the webhook (e.g., after a tag is applied).
Accepts payload with recipient email and optional custom fields (first name, company, website, phone, etc.).
Easy to adapt for confirmations, updates, welcomes, and announcements.

HTML Email Composer
Builds a clean, brandable HTML template with safe fallbacks.
Supports per-contact personalization via mapped fields.

Gmail Delivery
Sends via Gmail (OAuth) with From/Reply-To, Subject, and HTML body.
Supports CC/BCC and attachments if needed.

Delivery Status Write-Back
On success: updates a KlickTipp custom field (e.g., Email delivery status = Sent).
On error: updates the same field to Failed (error details available in execution logs).
