Overview

This node interacts with the Mealie API to send a test email to a specified email address. It is useful for administrators who want to verify the email sending functionality of their Mealie instance by sending a test email to ensure the email configuration is working correctly.

Use Case Examples

1. An admin wants to confirm that the email server settings are correct by sending a test email to their own email address.
2. A user configures the node to send a test email to a support address to verify that notifications will be received properly.

Properties

Output

JSON

• success - Indicates whether the test email was sent successfully.

Dependencies

• Mealie API

Troubleshooting

• If the node fails to send the test email, verify that the provided email address is valid and reachable.
• Ensure the selected authentication method matches the Mealie API configuration and that the API token (if used) is correct and has sufficient permissions.
• If SSL errors occur, consider enabling the option to ignore SSL certificate issues, especially in development or self-signed certificate environments.
• Check proxy settings if a proxy is required for network access.
• Timeout errors may occur if the server is slow or unreachable; increase the timeout setting if necessary.
