This is different from the Template Node — here, you manually select the provider and specify recipient details instead of using a predefined template. Provider Configuration ### Basic Workflow Configuration In a Basic workflow, the configuration is straightforward: * **Provider**: Select from a dropdown list of available providers for the chosen channel. * **Wait for Delivery Status**: A checkbox to indicate whether the workflow should pause until a delivery status (e.g., delivered or failed) is returned. This setup works well when you want to quickly trigger a notification using a static provider and recipient details. ### Advanced Workflow Configuration In an Advanced workflow, this node offers more flexibility: * **Static Mode** (default view): * **Provider**: Same as in Basic — select a static provider from the dropdown. * **Recipient Field**: Enter the value for the recipient (e.g., Email address, phone number) or use a variable via JSON path (e.g., `${workflow.input.recipient.email}`). * **Wait for Delivery Status**: Same checkbox as in Basic. * **Dynamic Mode** (enabled via toggle switch): When toggled ON, the node supports fully dynamic provider routing: * **Provider Integration name or JSON Path**: Input field to define the integration either directly or via a JSON path (e.g., `${workflow.input.provider_name}`). * **Provider (dropdown)**: Still available as a fallback or default. * **Recipient Field or JSON Path**: Define where to fetch recipient info dynamically — e.g., `${workflow.input.notify.sms}`. * **Wait for Delivery Status**: Optional checkbox to enable delivery-based control logic.
