Listmonk

Interact with a listmonk instance

Overview

The node "Listmonk" allows interaction with a Listmonk instance, which is an open-source self-hosted newsletter and mailing list manager. Specifically, the "Set Template as Default" operation under the "Template" resource sets a particular email template as the default one in the Listmonk system.

This operation is useful when you want to designate a specific email template to be used by default for campaigns or mailings without manually selecting it each time. For example, after creating or updating a new branded email template, you can set it as the default so that all future campaigns automatically use this template unless specified otherwise.

Properties

Name Meaning
ID The unique identifier of the template object to be set as the default. This is a required string property.

Output

The output of this operation typically contains JSON data representing the result of setting the template as default. While the exact structure is not detailed in the provided code, it usually includes confirmation of success or details about the updated template status.

No binary data output is indicated for this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires connection to a Listmonk instance via its API.
  • Needs credentials including:
    • Domain URL of the Listmonk instance.
    • Username and password for API authentication.
  • The node uses HTTP Basic Authentication headers to communicate with the Listmonk API endpoint.

Troubleshooting

  • Invalid ID: If the provided template ID does not exist or is incorrect, the API will likely return an error indicating the template was not found. Verify the ID before running the operation.
  • Authentication errors: Incorrect username, password, or domain URL will cause authentication failures. Ensure credentials are correct and the domain URL is properly formatted without trailing slashes.
  • Network issues: Connectivity problems to the Listmonk server will prevent the operation from completing. Check network access and firewall settings.
  • API changes: If the Listmonk API version changes, some operations might fail. Confirm compatibility between the node version and the Listmonk API.
