Overview
The Zoho Mail node allows users to interact with the Zoho Mail API, specifically for managing messages and attachments. The "Get Many" operation is designed to retrieve multiple messages from a specified folder within a user's account. This functionality is particularly useful for applications that need to process or analyze large volumes of emails, such as email marketing tools, customer support systems, or data analysis platforms. For example, a user could automate the retrieval of all emails in a specific folder to generate reports or trigger workflows based on email content.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Account ID | The unique identifier for the Zoho Mail account from which messages are retrieved. This property is required. |
| Folder ID | The unique identifier for the folder from which to retrieve messages. If not provided, messages will be fetched from the default folder. |
Output
The output of the Get Many operation consists of an array of message objects, each containing details about the retrieved emails. The structure typically includes fields such as the message ID, sender, recipient, subject, and body content. If the node can output binary data (e.g., attachments), it will summarize the meaning of this data without providing specific internal names.
Dependencies
To use this node, an API key credential for Zoho Mail is required. Users must ensure they have configured their n8n environment with the necessary authentication details to access the Zoho Mail API.
Troubleshooting
Common issues users might encounter include:
- Missing Account ID: If the Account ID is not provided, the node will throw an error indicating that this field is required.
- Invalid Folder ID: If the Folder ID does not correspond to an existing folder, the API may return an error or an empty response.
- Authentication Errors: If the API key credential is incorrect or expired, users will receive authentication-related error messages. To resolve this, verify the API key and re-authenticate if necessary.
