n8n FulfillmentTools Order Confirmation via Gmail (EN/DE)

Automated Order Confirmations from fulfillmenttools—Sent via Gmail (EN/DE)

This n8n workflow automatically listens for newly created orders in fulfillmenttools, validates the order source and customer email, and then sends a personalized HTML order confirmation to the customer using Gmail in English or German—based on your order’s language settings.

What this workflow does

• Triggers on an ORDER_CREATED event from the fulfillmenttools n8n node.
• Validates the order:
  • Confirms salesSource is set to “FFT_Shop”.
  • Ensures the customer email exists and matches a valid email pattern (from consumer.addresses[0].email).
• Routes the email language using customAttributes.shopLanguage:
  • en_US → sends the English version
  • de_DE → sends the German version
• Sends a personalized HTML confirmation email via Gmail to the customer’s email address.
• If validation fails (wrong salesSource or missing/invalid email), it stops processing without sending anything.

Use cases

• Your store generates orders through fulfillmenttools and you want instant customer confirmation without manual emailing.
• You run international operations and need bilingual confirmations driven by customAttributes.shopLanguage.
• You want safer automation that only emails customers when the order originates from FFT_Shop and includes a valid email.

Technical details

• fulfillmenttools trigger: ORDER_CREATED subscription
• Validation logic: if, no op, and conditional routing
• Language selection: switch (en_US vs de_DE)
• Email sending: Gmail with OAuth2 credentials (HTML email)
• Includes a sticky note for workflow clarity

To use it, connect fulfillmenttools credentials for the trigger and add Gmail OAuth2 credentials to enable sending confirmation emails to your customers.
