I have multiple Email Providers or integrations active, how do I associate them to a Workflow?
There can be more than one active email integrations of same or different providers. However only one email integration can be primary at one time per environment. To use a different email integration than your primary integration, the integrationIdentifier field of email overrides can be used. Read about using different email integration for more details.
Why am I getting the error “message content could not be generated”?
This error occurs when the HTML content is not properly formatted. Make sure the HTML content is properly formatted and does not contain any syntax errors. Make sure Step Variables are properly formatted and are not missing opening or closing curly braces.
Can email or phone be used as step variables?
Novu recommends not to use subscriber attributes as step variables. Instead, use the subscriber attributes directly in the step. For example, use {{subscriber.email}} instead of {{email}} as your step variable. Novu will select the email from subscriber attributes and inject the value in the content.
