ResendInstall

Overview

The node implements an "Update Broadcast" operation within a broadcast messaging system. It allows users to update the details of an existing broadcast message by specifying its unique ID and modifying various fields such as audience, sender email, subject, message content, reply-to addresses, and internal name.

This node is beneficial in scenarios where you need to modify or correct broadcast messages after their initial creation but before sending or for managing ongoing campaigns. For example, if you want to change the subject line or update the message content of a scheduled broadcast, this node provides that capability.

Practical examples:

• Updating the subject and message content of a promotional email broadcast.
• Changing the sender email address or reply-to list for a customer notification broadcast.
• Modifying the target audience of a broadcast campaign.

There is no indication that the node outputs binary data.

Dependencies

• Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the external broadcast service.
• The node depends on the external Resend API service to perform broadcast updates.
• Proper configuration of the API authentication token in n8n credentials is necessary.

Troubleshooting

• Common issues:

  • Providing an invalid or non-existent Broadcast ID will likely cause errors.
  • Missing required fields or incorrect formatting in email addresses (From Email, Reply To) can lead to validation failures.
  • Network or authentication errors if the API key is missing, expired, or incorrect.

• Error messages and resolutions:

  • "Broadcast not found": Verify the Broadcast ID is correct and exists.
  • "Invalid email address": Check the formatting of From Email and Reply To fields.
  • "Authentication failed": Ensure the API key credential is properly set up and valid.
  • "Missing required parameters": Confirm all mandatory fields are provided.
