How It Works
This n8n workflow utilizes the Microsoft Outlook node to create, attach files, and send email drafts with precision. The process begins with a manual trigger, allowing flexible initiation. It then connects to the Microsoft Outlook node to generate a draft email, leveraging HTTP requests to pull necessary data. A sticky note node can be used for additional context or logging, while the stop-and-error node provides robust error handling. The workflow intelligently manages attachment processes, ensuring all required documents are included before sending.
