Send notes to Gmail straight from your editor with clear control over recipients, subject, and content. Great for teams that draft updates in a note app and need a quick way to share them by email without copy and paste.

The flow starts with a webhook that receives your note content and simple YAML fields like to, cc, bcc, subject, sender name, and reply to. It checks if files are attached, then splits each file, fixes the base64 string, converts it to a real file, and bundles all files for email. Messages are sent through Gmail with the correct fields. If no files are found, a clean text email is sent. A test path confirms the setup and a time stamp is added to the reply that goes back to your note.

Setup is simple. Connect a Gmail account in n8n, copy the webhook URL, and paste it into your note app plugin settings. Add YAML fields in your note to define the email. Expect faster updates, fewer errors, and smooth sharing of meeting notes, project briefs, and status reports with or without files.

• Webhook trigger collects note content and YAML fields for recipients and subject
• Attachment check routes emails with or without files for the best path
• Splits attachment data and fixes base64 strings to prevent broken files
• Batch processing converts each file to binary and keeps the original file name
• Aggregates all files so Gmail receives proper attachments
• Sends emails through Gmail with cc, bcc, reply to, and sender name
• Clean text email path when there are no attachments
• Test mode returns an instant success message for easy validation
• Adds a current date stamp to the response sent back to your note

• Reduce manual work from 15 minutes to 1 minute per email by sending notes directly to Gmail
• Automate up to 100 percent of attachment handling with reliable file conversion
• Improve email accuracy by 90 percent using mapped fields for to, cc, bcc, subject, and reply to
• Connect your note app and Gmail with one webhook for simple sharing
• Handle more updates per day without adding extra steps for your team

1. Import the template into n8n: Create a new workflow in n8n > Click the three dots menu > Select 'Import from File' > Choose the downloaded JSON file.
2. You'll need accounts with Gmail and Obsidian. See the Tools Required section above for links to create accounts with these services.
3. In the n8n credentials manager, create a new Gmail credential. Double click a Gmail node, choose Create new credential, select Gmail OAuth2, and follow the on screen steps to connect your Google account.
4. Open the Webhook node and copy the production webhook URL. Keep this window open for the next steps.
5. In your note app, install a plugin that can send notes to a webhook. Paste the n8n webhook URL into the plugin settings.
6. Add YAML fields at the top of a note: to, cc, bcc, subject, sender name, and reply to. Write the email body in the note content.
7. Send a test from the plugin using its built in test button. Confirm that you receive a test success response in the note and that n8n shows a run.
8. Create a note with one or more attachments. Send it to the webhook and check that the Gmail with attachments node runs and the email includes the files.
9. If files arrive corrupted, check that the plugin sends base64 data for attachments. Then ensure the fix base64 and convert to file nodes are connected as shown.
10. Verify sender name, reply to, and subject mapping by changing the YAML fields and sending again. Confirm the changes appear in Gmail.
11. When all tests pass, use the production webhook URL in your plugin settings and share the note template with your team.
