Only now I’m creating a dedicated thread for this plugin
I’ve released the batch workflow action, it allows you to send an email to up to 500 recipients with a single workflow action
Pass a list of texts that are email addresses and you’re green!
Just make sure you send through the broadcast message stream if you’re, well, broadcasting instead of sending transactional emails.
But there’s more! I also implemented an email body variable mechanism so you can send customized emails for each recipient with this batch action!
Here’s the blocky explanation of it and after it a couple screenshots:
This works with both HTML and Plain text email bodies.
Example, say you want to use the customer’s name, so you can write the email like this, without quotes:
“Hello dear {{var1}}, responding to your office hours request, I’ll call you at your phone {{var2}}, thanks!”
Then in the Var 1 field you pass a list of names (list of texts) so each email will replace that {{var1}} with the respective item in the text list, in other words, the first email will pick the first name of the list. Of course var2 works the same way, in this example it would be a list of texts containing phone numbers, something like “54984”.
Take a look at another example and its result:
At one of my personal emails:
At another email of mine:
