Mail Sender

The Mail Sender has only one default action - Send e-mail.
Simply drag & drop the Mail Sender to the workspace and double-click it. As always, you can edit the Helper name and Reference if you click on the text or upper blue button as indicated in the screenshot below:

Email Subject: Write your email subject as you wish. Note that you can include smart data wrangling as indicated with {{ date }}.
To Email Addresses: Enter one or multiple emails comma-separated.
CC Email Addresses: Enter one or multiple emails comma-separated.
Message: Enter any kind of text as in a normal email. Use Advanced View to enter text in HTML.
Attachment Names: Name attachments accordingly as you wish and also feel free to add smart data wrangling to e.g. generate dynamic parts in your files.
Attachment URL is: Link any file that has been created e.g. from the CSV Helper's action "Write CSV file".
Reply to Email Addresses: Comma-separated email addresses, which the recipient can respond to when receiving the email.
Note: Send emails only to those you know and are well-informed about. Every email contains the possibility to unsubscribe from future emails. Emails can only be sent on paid plans.
FAQs
Q: Is it possible to remove the “sent by locoia; unsubscribe” footer?
A: The Mail Sender Helper is only supposed to be used to send notifications to yourself/team members in case of errors, when specific events occur, or to send logs. To own the branding and send transactional and marketing emails, we recommend using services like SendGrid or Mailjet.
Q: How can I include hyperlinks in the email message?
A: Toggle the Advanced view button to write your email message in HTML format. Your previous written text will be automatically converted to HTML. Now you can add hyperlinks using the following tag:
<a href="https://domain.com">Link-Text</a>.
It is of course also possible to use smart data wrangling within the hyperlink or link text:
<a href="{{ address }}">{{ text }}</a>.
