Overview
This node integrates with the Memberspot API to manage user-related data and actions. Specifically, the "Find by Email" operation under the "User" resource allows you to retrieve detailed information about a user by providing their email address.
Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include:
- Looking up user details for verification or processing in workflows.
- Automating user management tasks such as granting offers or updating user states based on email.
- Fetching course progress or login tokens for users identified by email.
Practical example:
- You have a workflow that triggers when a new order is placed. Using this node's "Find by Email" operation, you can fetch the user's profile from Memberspot to check their current subscriptions or course enrollments before proceeding.
