Bird is now a verified n8n node

Our official Bird node is now verified by n8n. Send email, SMS, and WhatsApp messages, manage contacts, and run verification steps directly from your workflows.

A form submission can send a welcome email. An order update can send an SMS using a template stored in Bird. Choose a resource and operation in the Bird node, then map data from an earlier step into its fields. You can also look up message delivery status and use the result in the next step.

Install the node from the nodes panel on n8n Cloud or a self-hosted instance with verified community nodes enabled.

Install the Bird node

1. Create a new workflow.
2. Open the nodes panel by selecting + or pressing Tab.
3. Search for Bird.
4. Select Install to install the node for your instance.
5. The Bird node is now available in your workflows.

Once installed, create an API key under API keys in the Bird dashboard, with the scopes your workflow needs. Paste it into a Bird API credential in n8n.

For installation settings, see n8n's verified-node guide.

Send a test email

Select your Bird API credential, set Resource to Email, and choose Send. Under Additional Fields, add Subject and Text, then fill in:

Field	Value
From	onboarding@messagebird.dev
To	delivered@messagebird.dev
Subject	Your workflow is connected
Text	This message was sent through Bird from n8n.

Execute the node. A successful response includes a message ID. This example uses Bird's shared onboarding sender and a sandbox recipient that simulates delivery without sending to a real inbox. The first-email guide explains how to check the result and the onboarding sender's limits.

To email customers, verify your sending domain and use an address on that domain in From.

Build your workflow
