Nodes & Operations

Gmail

Handles sending emails, managing drafts, and sending existing drafts through the Gmail API, supporting detailed email composition including attachments and alias usage.

• Draft · Create — Creates a Gmail draft for each input item by building a MIME message from the subject, body, and optional recipients, attachments, and sender settings, then POSTing it to the Gmail drafts API. It does not send the draft.
• Draft · Send — Sends an existing Gmail draft by its ID via the Gmail API (POST /gmail/v1/users/me/drafts/send), using the connected gmailOAuth2 account.
• Message · Send — Sends an email immediately from the authenticated Gmail account via the Gmail API (users/me/messages/send), with optional CC, BCC, reply-to, alias/sender name, and binary attachments.

Credentials

This package authenticates using Gmail OAuth2 credentials, allowing secure access to the Gmail API for sending messages and managing drafts.
