Send email

Settings

Setting	What it is
SES account	Leave empty to send from Flowmage. Pick a connection to send from your own SES account and your own address.
From	The verified SES identity to send as, e.g. Flowmage <hello@yourcompany.com>.
ToRequired	At most 25 recipients across To, Cc and Bcc (SES allows 50). For a list from upstream, use {{ join(trigger.recipients, ", ") }}.
Cc	text
Bcc	text
Reply to	text
SubjectRequired	text
BodyRequired	Plain text by default, {{ }} expressions welcome. In HTML mode write the markup itself — nothing is escaped or rewritten, and a mail with HTML only is what leaves (add a text-only branch if you need both parts). With no connection, the mail goes from Flowmage's own address.
Body format	Plain text is safer and readable everywhere; HTML is sent exactly as written. No text part is derived from HTML.
Attachments	File name → content — use {{ file("report.pdf").base64 }} as the value. Up to 7 MB of attachments in total.

Example step

The step as a flow file holds it. Replace each value in <…>.

{
  "config": {
    "attachments": {},
    "bcc": "",
    "body": "<body>",
    "bodyFormat": "text",
    "cc": "",
    "connection": "",
    "from": "",
    "replyTo": "",
    "subject": "<subject>",
    "to": "<to>"
  },
  "label": "Send email",
  "type": "ses.send",
  "version": 2
}

Older versions

A flow that already has this version keeps running it. A new step always gets the newest.
