Overview

This node operation creates a new email draft in Missive, optionally sending it immediately and managing conversation state. It supports specifying email details such as subject, HTML body, sender information, recipients (To, CC, BCC), and various conversation-related options like threading references, conversation ID, subject, color, team, organization, scheduling, and labels. Attachments can be included as base64-encoded files. This node is useful for automating email draft creation and sending within workflows, for example, sending notification emails or managing customer support conversations.

Output

  • json - Response object from Missive API containing details of the created draft email.

Dependencies

  • Missive API with an API token credential

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the API token credential is valid and has necessary permissions to create drafts.
  • Verify that required fields like Subject and Body are provided; missing these will cause errors.
  • Attachments must reference existing binary data in the workflow; invalid binary property names will cause failures.
  • If scheduling is used, ensure the date/time format is correct and supported by the API.
  • For JSON fields like references or user IDs, ensure correct formatting (e.g., comma-separated lists).
  • If sending immediately, network or API errors may occur; check connectivity and API status.
