Send a Mandrill Template Email

Send a transactional email using a Mandrill template.

Setup and use

Create or select a published Mailchimp Transactional template. Configure a verified sender and a recipient in Send the template email in Open Flow or Mandrill in n8n. The example template name is welcomeemailv2; change it to a template in your account. Bind the API key as the secret Variable MANDRILL_API_KEY in Open Flow or connect a Mandrill credential in n8n. Run manually.

Behavior

Each run sends one template email. Open Flow returns the recipient and the provider’s status; n8n returns the provider response. A sent or queued status does not prove inbox delivery; rejected and invalid require attention. If a request fails or its result is unknown, check the Transactional account before retrying to avoid a duplicate message. Restrict access to execution history because it contains recipient data.

Changes to the source

Replace example addresses with configuration and use a secret API key with the same Transactional template endpoint in Open Flow.
