Send Campaign

AI-generated

Overview

The node integrates with Listmonk, an email marketing platform, to manage and automate email campaigns. Specifically, the Send Campaign operation triggers sending a previously created email campaign by updating its status to "running" in Listmonk.

This node is useful for automating email marketing workflows such as launching newsletters, promotional campaigns, or announcements without manual intervention. For example, after creating and scheduling a campaign, you can use this node to start sending it immediately or at a scheduled time.

Properties

Name Meaning
Campaign ID The unique numeric identifier of the campaign to send. This is required to specify which campaign should be sent.

Output

  • The output JSON contains the response from the Listmonk API after attempting to send the campaign.
  • Typically, this will include confirmation of the campaign status update or error details if the request failed.
  • The node does not output binary data.

Dependencies

  • Requires connection to a Listmonk instance via its REST API.
  • Needs credentials including:
    • The domain URL of the Listmonk API.
    • A username and password for basic authentication.
  • These credentials must be configured in n8n prior to using the node.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:
    • Invalid or missing Campaign ID will cause the API call to fail.
    • Incorrect API credentials or domain URL will result in authentication errors.
    • Network connectivity problems may prevent reaching the Listmonk server.
  • Error messages:
    • Authentication failures typically return HTTP 401 Unauthorized.
    • If the campaign ID does not exist, a 404 Not Found or similar error may occur.
    • Validation errors from the API will indicate missing or malformed parameters.
  • Resolutions:
    • Verify that the Campaign ID is correct and corresponds to an existing campaign.
    • Check that API credentials and domain are correctly set up in n8n.
    • Ensure the Listmonk server is reachable and operational.
