Verify Generic Business Emails Across Multiple Domains

This n8n workflow provides a framework for verifying business emails across multiple domains. It's designed to be a starting point for integrating with an email verification service, reading data from Google Sheets, and processing it.

What it does

This workflow outlines the following steps:

1. Manual Trigger: The workflow is initiated manually, allowing for on-demand execution.
2. Google Sheets Integration: It includes a Google Sheets node, indicating an intention to read email data from or write verification results to a Google Sheet.
3. HTTP Request: An HTTP Request node is present, suggesting an external API call will be made, likely to an email verification service (e.g., EmailListVerify, as hinted by the directory name).
4. Merge Data: A Merge node is included, implying that data from different sources or different stages of the verification process will be combined.
5. Sticky Note: A sticky note is included for documentation or instructions within the workflow.

Prerequisites/Requirements

To use this workflow effectively, you will need:

• n8n Instance: A running n8n instance.
• Google Sheets Account: Configured with credentials in n8n.
• Email Verification Service: An account and API key for an email verification service (e.g., EmailListVerify, ZeroBounce, Hunter.io, etc.). The HTTP Request node will need to be configured with the specific API endpoint and authentication details for your chosen service.

Setup/Usage

1. Import the workflow: Import the provided JSON into your n8n instance.
2. Configure Google Sheets:
   • Add your Google Sheets credentials to the "Google Sheets" node.
   • Specify the Spreadsheet ID and Sheet Name from which you intend to read emails or where you want to write results.
3. Configure HTTP Request:
   • Edit the "HTTP Request" node.
   • Set the URL to the endpoint of your chosen email verification service.
   • Configure the Method (e.g., GET, POST) and Headers (e.g., Authorization with your API key) as required by the service's API documentation.
   • Map the email addresses from the Google Sheets output to the request body or query parameters as needed by the email verification API.
4. Configure Merge (if needed): Adjust the "Merge" node's settings based on how you want to combine the original Google Sheets data with the verification results.
5. Extend the workflow: This workflow is a starting point. You will likely want to add nodes for:
   • Data transformation: To extract email addresses from your Google Sheet data before sending them to the verification service.
   • Error handling: To manage failed API calls or invalid email responses.
   • Writing results back: To update your Google Sheet with the verification status (e.g., valid, invalid, risky).
   • Filtering: To process only certain types of emails or verification results.
6. Execute the workflow: Click the "Execute workflow" button to run it manually.
