Overview

The node integrates with the Reachkit API to manage a blocklist of email addresses. Specifically, the "Add" operation under the "Blocklist" resource allows users to add an email address to the blocklist. This is useful in scenarios where you want to prevent certain email addresses from receiving communications or interacting with your system, such as blocking spam or unsubscribed users.

Practical examples include:

  • Automatically adding users who unsubscribe from newsletters to a blocklist.
  • Blocking known spammers or abusive email addresses from campaigns or conversations.
  • Managing compliance by ensuring certain emails are excluded from outreach.

Properties

Name Meaning
Email The email address to add to the blocklist. Must be a valid email string (e.g., name@email.com).

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the response from the Reachkit API after attempting to add the specified email to the blocklist. The structure typically includes confirmation of the addition or details about the blocked email entry.

If the API supports it, the output may also contain metadata such as timestamps or status codes related to the blocklist entry.

No binary data output is expected for this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the Reachkit API.
  • Needs an API authentication token configured in n8n credentials to authorize requests.
  • The base URL for API requests is https://reachkit.ai/api/v1.
  • The node sends and receives data in JSON format.

Troubleshooting

  • Invalid Email Format: If the provided email is not properly formatted, the API may reject the request. Ensure the email input matches standard email patterns.
  • Authentication Errors: Missing or invalid API credentials will cause authorization failures. Verify that the API key/token is correctly set up in n8n credentials.
  • API Rate Limits: Frequent requests might hit rate limits imposed by Reachkit. In such cases, wait before retrying or check API usage policies.
  • Network Issues: Connectivity problems can cause request failures. Confirm network access to https://reachkit.ai/api/v1.
  • Error Responses: The node may return error messages from the API indicating issues like duplicate entries or server errors. Review the message and adjust inputs accordingly.
