Automation
n8n
Official n8n community node for Intelliprint. Send letters and postcards from self-hosted or cloud n8n workflows.
What it does
How n8n works with Intelliprint.
Intelliprint ships an official community node for n8n, installable from npm as n8n-nodes-intelliprint or directly through n8n’s community-node installer. Drop the node into any workflow and send letters or postcards to UK addresses — no HTTP Request node, no boilerplate, no manually crafted authentication headers.
n8n is the right route when you need more control than off-the-shelf no-code platforms offer — either because you self-host for data-residency reasons (regulated industries, healthcare, legal), because your workflows are more branching than Zapier handles cleanly, or because you prefer fair-code infrastructure without per-execution fees. The Intelliprint node slots in as a normal step: upstream data flows in, the node calls our API, execution continues.
Because n8n self-hosts, customer data stays inside your infrastructure. The Intelliprint node receives only the recipient details and content needed to produce the mail piece. Chain it with conditionals, loops, database reads, and every other n8n node — n8n orchestrates, Intelliprint produces, nothing leaks to third parties in between.
Common use cases
What teams build with n8n + Intelliprint.
- Self-hosted mail automation for regulated industries with data-residency requirements
- Complex multi-step workflows with branching logic that’s too rich for Zapier
- Scheduled batch mail runs triggered by a cron node and database query
- Webhook-driven letter generation from your own applications
- Chain Intelliprint with AI nodes to generate personalised letter content before posting
Set-up
Get connected in 5 steps.
Install the Intelliprint community node
In your n8n instance, go to Settings → Community Nodes and install n8n-nodes-intelliprint. Alternatively, run npm install n8n-nodes-intelliprint in your n8n container and restart.
Get your Intelliprint API key
Generate an API key in your Intelliprint dashboard under Settings → API. Copy it.
Add the credential to n8n
In n8n, create an Intelliprint credential using the API key. This is stored in n8n’s credential store and reusable across workflows.
Add the Intelliprint node to your workflow
Drag the Intelliprint node into your workflow. Pick the operation (Send Letter or Send Postcard) and map your data — recipient address, content, postage class — from upstream nodes.
Test, then activate
Execute the workflow once manually. Intelliprint creates the mail piece as a draft by default so you can preview in the dashboard before enabling autosend in production.
