Hey Bubblers,
Are you tired of wrestling with the API Connector to get Mailgun to work just right? Have you ever wanted to send a weekly newsletter where every single user gets a unique, personalised list of items, without building complex, slow backend workflows?
If so, I’m excited to announce a new plugin we’ve been working on to solve these exact problems: Advanced Mailgun: Templates & Dynamic Digests.
This is a complete, server-side toolkit designed to unlock the full power of Mailgun for your Bubble app.
What does it do?
This plugin offers two core, server-side actions:
1. Simple Templated Emails (with attachments!) A rock-solid action for all your transactional needs.
-
Welcome emails, password resets, order confirmations.
-
Easily pass dynamic variables to your Mailgun templates.
-
Supports a list of file attachments.
2. The Ultimate Dynamic Digest Action This is the heart of the plugin. Send a single email campaign to a list of users, where each user receives a unique, personalised digest of items relevant only to them.
-
Decoupled Logic: Match users from your Recipient List with content from a separate Digest Item List using a common “link” field.
-
Advanced Many-to-Many Matching: The link fields can be a single Thing or a list of Things. The plugin will include an item if any of the recipient’s links match any of the item’s links.
-
“Match All” Fallback: If a user has no specified interests, you can have them receive a global digest of all items.
-
Smart Data Formatting: The plugin automatically handles Bubble’s tricky data types. It correctly formats Dates, Date Ranges, and File/Image URLs (
//s3...becomeshttps://s3``...) so they look perfect in your emails.
Built for Professionals
-
Secure by Design: All actions run on Bubble’s server. Your API keys and data are never exposed to the user’s browser. -
Built-in Diagnostics: The digest action returns a clean JSON snapshot of the first recipient and their resolved data, making setup and troubleshooting a bit easier.
