00Overview
Every field below is exactly what you see in the Flomation editor. Fields marked ● live picker let you choose from a list pulled live from your account — no IDs to look up.
01Connecting Email
Add your credentials as a Flomation environment secret, then pick them in each node. The connection fields are:
| Field | Type | Details | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Content Type | string | Plain Text, HTML |
Pick an Environment on your flow (Flow Settings → Environment) so the secret resolves. Secret fields never show the value — they reference
${secrets.your_secret}.02Send

04Notes & Limitations
Behaviours and constraints worth knowing before you build with these nodes.
- A successful send confirms only that your SMTP server accepted the message for relay, not that it reached the recipient's inbox or cleared their spam filters.
- There is no open, click, or reply tracking, and undeliverable addresses are not reported here — bounces arrive later as separate emails to the sending account rather than as an error on this step.
- Deliverability depends on your sending domain's authentication (SPF, DKIM, and DMARC); mail from an unverified or misconfigured domain is frequently filtered as spam.
- Leave the HTML body empty to send a plain-text email; when both are provided, most mail clients display the HTML version.
