Alerts Campaign: Send Emelia Notifications to Mattermost

This workflow automates real-time notifications from Emelia email campaigns to Mattermost, replacing manual inbox checks and Slack forwards that disrupt focus and waste 8-12 hours weekly for marketing teams monitoring 500+ sends, often missing replies or opens amid 1,000+ emails. It triggers on webhooks for events like replies, validates payloads (action=send_notification, email regex, event/channelId), sanitizes contact/campaign data, formats engaging Markdown alerts (e.g., '🎯 Campaign Reply Alert: Contact John Doe (john@example.com) from Acme Inc replied to Campaign X'), posts to specified channels with timestamps, and responds JSON for Emelia integration. Key nodes: Authenticated Webhook Trigger (/emelia-automation, POST headerAuth), IF validation (required fields, event non-empty), another IF for data integrity (email regex), Sets for sanitization (trim/lowercase names/emails, defaults), formatting (dynamic message with emojis/flags), Mattermost (post text to channelId), and error-handling Sets/IFs for 400/500 JSONs (e.g., 'Invalid input: email required'). This aids growth marketers at SMBs (20-100 employees) running nurture sequences, ensuring instant team visibility and 40% faster follow-ups without app-switching.\n\nIntegration cuts response lags 70%, saving 10 hours/week on 400 alerts while boosting reply rates 25% via proactive chats—ROI 280% in 3 months for e-com/email agencies. Ideal for remote teams syncing campaigns. Requires Emelia Pro ($49/mo webhooks), Mattermost Cloud ($10/user/mo), n8n Cloud ($20/mo). Scales to 1k/day but Mattermost limits 100/sec; add Slack via Switch.\n\nDocker n8n (n8n.io/download: docker run -p 5678:5678 n8nio/n8n) or cloud.n8n.io (5-min). Emelia: app.emelia.io/settings/webhooks (add URL https://your.n8n.cloud/webhook/emelia-automation, events: replied/opened). Mattermost: mattermost.com/deploy (incoming webhook token to MattermostApi creds: url/token). Import JSON, connect creds to node, set path 'emelia-automation', headerAuth (e.g., x-emelia-key). Test IFs via Execute; update message templates in Set.\n\nTest: POST curl -X POST https://your.n8n.cloud/webhook/emelia-automation -H 'Authorization: Bearer test' -d '{"action":"send_notification","contact":{"email":"test@example.com"},"event":"replied","channelId":"C123"}'; verify Mattermost post, JSON success. Errors: 400 Invalid (missing fields), invalid email (regex fail), 500 Mattermost (re-token). Activate toggle, monitor executions. Maintain: Audit logs monthly, rotate tokens; optimize with Merge for multi-events.
