📬 Plex Recently Added → Responsive Email Newsletter (Tautulli Alternative)

What it is

This workflow automatically creates a weekly Plex newsletter that highlights recently added Movies & TV Shows. It’s designed to be mobile-friendly and Gmail/iOS Mail compatible, making it easy to share Plex updates with friends, family, or your community.

How it works
• ⏰ Runs on a weekly schedule (customizable).
• 🎬 Fetches recently added Movies & TV Shows from Tautulli API.
• 📰 Builds a responsive HTML newsletter that works in Gmail, iOS Mail, and most clients.
• 📧 Sends one personalized email per recipient via SMTP.
• 🗒️ Every node has a Sticky Note explaining setup and purpose.

How to set up
1. Replace the placeholders in the nodes with your own details:
• YOUR_TAUTULLI_URL
• YOUR_API_KEY
• YOUR_PLEX_TOKEN
• YOUR_PLEX_SERVER_ID
2. Update the recipient list in Prepare Emails for Recipients.
3. Add your SMTP credentials in Send Newsletter Emails.
4. (Optional) Customize the HTML/CSS in Generate HTML Newsletter.

Requirements
• Plex Media Server with Tautulli installed.
• SMTP account (Gmail, custom domain, etc.).

Customization
• Change the schedule to daily/weekly as needed.
• Edit the HTML template for your own branding.
• Extend with additional nodes (Discord, Slack, etc.).
