Handles email templating, Resend API integration, and Make workflow automation. --- # Restaurant Email Sender Send restaurant information, website URLs, and details via email using Resend API integrated with Make (Integromat) workflows. ## Overview This skill complements the restaurant-website-builder by providing email notification capabilities. After a restaurant website is created and deployed, use this skill to: - Send website launch notifications to restaurant owners - Email restaurant details to marketing teams - Distribute menu information to subscribers - Send confirmation emails with reservation details - Notify stakeholders about new restaurant listings ## Prerequisites 1. **Resend Account**: Sign up at https://resend.com/ - Get your API key from the dashboard - Verify your domain or use the default Resend domain for testing 2. **Make (Integromat) Account**: Sign up at https://www.make.com/ - Create a new scenario for email automation - Set up webhook triggers ## Workflow ### 1. Set Up Resend Integration **Option A: Direct API Usage** Use the Resend API directly with the API key: ```bash curl -X POST 'https://api.resend.com/emails' -H 'Authorization: Bearer re_xxxxxxxx' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{ "from": "Restaurant Team ", "to": ["owner@restaurant.com"], "subject": "Your Restaurant Website is Live!", "html": "Your website is ready

URL: https://your-restaurant.vercel.app

" }' ``` **Option B: Via Make (Integromat) Webhook** Send data to a Make webhook that triggers the email: ```bash curl -X POST 'https://hook.make.com/xxxxxxxx' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{ "restaurant_name": "Tony's Pizza", "website_url": "https://tonys-pizza.vercel.app", "recipient_email": "owner@restaurant.com", "template": "website_launch" }' ``` ### 2. Make Scenario Setup **Step 1: Create Webhook Trigger** 1. In Make, create a new scenario 2. Add "Webhooks" module → "Custom webhook" 3. Copy the webhook URL 4. Configure expected JSON structure **Step 2: Add Resend Module** 1. Add "Resend" module → "Send an Email" 2. Connect your Resend account (add API key) 3. Map fields from webhook data: - From: Your verified sender - To: `{{ webhook.recipient_email }}` - Subject: Dynamic based on template - HTML Body: Use HTML template with variables **Step 3: Add Router (Optional)** For multiple email types, add a router: - Website launch notification - Menu update alert - Reservation confirmation - Weekly newsletter ### 3. Email Templates Create HTML templates for different email types: **Website Launch Template:** ```html

Batch Email Sending For multiple recipients, use the batch script: ```bash ./scripts/batch_send_emails.sh --webhook "https://hook.make.com/xxxxxxxx" --csv "recipients.csv" --template "newsletter" ``` CSV format: ```csv email,name,restaurant_name,website_url owner1@restaurant.com,John,Tony's Pizza,https://tonys-pizza.vercel.app owner2@restaurant.com,Jane,Mario's Trattoria,https://marios-trattoria.vercel.app ``` ## Environment Variables Store sensitive configuration in `.env`: ```bash # Resend Configuration RESEND_API_KEY=re_xxxxxxxx RESEND_FROM_EMAIL=notifications@yourdomain.com RESEND_FROM_NAME=Restaurant Website Team # Make Webhook URLs MAKE_WEBHOOK_LAUNCH=https://hook.make.com/xxxx_launch MAKE_WEBHOOK_INFO=https://hook.make.com/xxxx_info MAKE_WEBHOOK_MENU=https://hook.make.com/xxxx_menu ``` ## Error Handling - **Invalid email address**: Make will return error; check email format - **Resend API limits**: Free tier: 100 emails/day; Pro: 50,000/month - **Webhook failures**: Check Make scenario execution history - **Template errors**: Validate HTML before sending ## Security Notes - Never commit API keys to git - Use environment variables for sensitive data - Verify domain in Resend before sending to external recipients - Use Resend's test domain for development ## Example Usage Flow 1. **Website Created**: User says "Create a website for Tony's Pizza" 2. **Deploy Complete**: Website deployed to https://tonys-pizza.vercel.app 3. **Send Notification**: Use this skill to email the owner: ``` Sending website launch email to owner@tonyspizza.com... ✓ Email sent successfully via Resend ✓ Make scenario executed ``` ## Integration with Restaurant Website Builder After completing the 6-step website builder workflow: 1. Get the deployed website URL from Vercel 2. Collect restaurant owner email from search results or user input 3. Trigger the email sender skill with website details 4. Confirm email delivery to the user ## Make Scenario Templates **Basic Scenario (Webhook → Resend):** ``` [Webhook] → [Resend: Send Email] → [Gmail: Save Copy (optional)] ``` **Advanced Scenario (with conditions):** ``` [Webhook] → [Router] ├─→ [Filter: template=launch] → [Resend: Launch Template] ├─→ [Filter: template=info] → [Resend: Info Template] └─→ [Filter: template=menu] → [Resend: Menu Template] ``` **Scenario with Database:** ``` [Webhook] → [Google Sheets: Add Row] → [Resend: Send Email] → [Slack: Notify Channel] ``` ## Testing 1. **Test with Resend test domain:** - Use `onboarding@resend.dev` as sender - Send to your own email first 2. **Test Make webhook:** - Use webhook.site for initial testing - Verify data payload structure 3. **Verify email delivery:** - Check spam folders - Validate HTML rendering - Test on mobile devices
