4. Creating an Automation

With the skill configured, you can now create automation workflows using Rube MCP. Below is an example YAML configuration for automating a Mailbluster campaign launch when a new product is added to a database:

triggers:
  - type: database.record.created
    table: products
actions:
  - type: mailbluster-automation.send_campaign
    params:
      list_id: "123456"
      subject: "New Product Alert: {{record.name}}"
      content: "Check out our new product: {{record.description}}"
      from: "marketing@yourcompany.com"
      to_list: true

This workflow listens for new product entries and automatically sends a campaign to the specified list.

5. Supported Actions

The Mailbluster Automation skill supports several key operations, including:

  • send_campaign: Launch a new email campaign to a list or segment.
  • add_subscriber: Add a new subscriber to a Mailbluster list.
  • update_subscriber: Update subscriber information in bulk or individually.
  • get_campaign_stats: Retrieve analytics for a specific campaign.

Example: Adding a subscriber when a new user registers:

triggers:
  - type: user.created
actions:
  - type: mailbluster-automation.add_subscriber
    params:
      email: "{{user.email}}"
      first_name: "{{user.first_name}}"
      last_name: "{{user.last_name}}"
      list_id: "654321"

6. Error Handling

Error handling can be configured to notify admins or log issues. For instance:

on_error:
  - type: notification.send
    params:
      channel: "admin-alerts"
      message: "Mailbluster automation failed: {{error.message}}"

This ensures that issues are caught early and manual intervention can occur if needed.

For organizations running complex marketing operations or integrating multiple SaaS platforms, this automation skill provides a scalable and reliable foundation.

Important Notes
