⚡ 3,839 views · ⚡ Personal Productivity
Description
The built-in Gmail node doesn’t yet support embedding images within the body of the email, but you can pull this off using the HTTP node, and this template shows you how.
Requirements
- A Gmail account
How it works
The workflow downloads an image, converts it into the format that the Gmail API expects (base64), packages it into a multipart MIME email and uses the HTTP node to send it.
