Onboard trial users: MySQL & Gmail

Runs on a schedule across MySQL, Gmail and Google Sheets, pauses on a Wait node until it is time to continue, then branches on the check before anything is written. Built for drip campaigns, around a "Keep Valid Emails" step, in 33 documented nodes.

Onboard trial users with MySQL and Gmail in real time. An original, ready-to-import n8n workflow built around the 'Drip Sequence' pattern for marketing & advertising. It runs on a schedule and orchestrates 33 nodes across MySQL, Gmail, Google Sheets. It uses n8n's LangChain AI nodes (Agent/Chain + chat model). Retry-on-fail is enabled on external calls. Import the JSON, add your credentials, and adapt the parameters. Your team sees the right data at the right time.

Key benefits

  • Keeps MySQL and Gmail in step for drip campaigns, without anyone re-typing a row
  • Safe to re-run: records already in MySQL or Gmail are skipped, across all 33 nodes of this drip-campaigns build
  • A failed MySQL or Gmail call is retried rather than dropped, at any of the 33 nodes in this drip-campaigns build
  • The pause before MySQL is durable — a drip-campaigns run survives a restart
  • Every drip-campaigns run leaves an audit row behind, alongside MySQL

Use cases

  • Teams keeping MySQL and Gmail aligned by hand for drip campaigns
  • Drip campaigns sequences that run over days and must survive a restart before MySQL
  • Drip campaigns work where "Keep Valid Emails" is still a manual step before MySQL
  • Drip campaigns work that only reaches MySQL on a schedule, when someone remembers to start it

From download to running in 3 steps

  1. 1
    Import. In n8n, open Workflows → menu → “Import from File” and pick the downloaded JSON.
  2. 2
    Connect. Add your own credentials on the app nodes - n8n highlights exactly which ones need them.
  3. 3
    Activate. Run it once to test, then toggle Active. The automation is live.

What you'll learn

Architect level

The deepest tier - sub-workflow delegation, state snapshots, and full observability.

  • Sequencing multi-day sends with durable Wait nodes
  • Checking for conversion before every step so the drip stops
  • Segmenting the audience up front

Every node carries its own documentation on the canvas, plus notes explaining why the architecture was built this way, a credential setup guide, troubleshooting, and three practice exercises. Sample data comes pinned to the trigger, so you can hit Execute and watch data flow before connecting a single account.

Common questions

What exactly do I get?

The complete, ready-to-import n8n workflow as a JSON file, delivered instantly after payment. Import it into your own n8n (cloud or self-hosted), add your credentials, and it runs.

How do I import it into n8n?

In n8n, open Workflows, click the three-dot menu, choose “Import from File”, and select the downloaded JSON. Then connect your own app credentials on the highlighted nodes.

Do I need anything else for it to work?

You need your own n8n instance and accounts/credentials for the apps this workflow connects to (MySQL, Gmail, Google Sheets, Slack, …). No coding is required.

What if it doesn't work for me?

If the file is faulty, won't import, or isn't as described, contact us within 7 days and we'll fix it or refund you - see our refund policy.

Can I modify or resell it?

You can freely adapt and use it in your own or your clients' projects. Reselling or redistributing the template file itself is not permitted.
