Remove n8n Signature from the "Send and Wait for Response" Gmail Node

How can I remove this appended n8n signature in the “Send and Wait for Response” Gmail Node? I don’t see a toggle in the options like the normal Gmail “send message” node

Shows another signature on button click, and that page doesn’t close automatically.

Can that message be customized with full page html, or text + icon?
I would love to make the experience better with a giant green confirmation CheckMark in the center + a message, and close it automatically after 3 seconds (I have the same thing setup with Webhooks)
Or setup a url redirect on button click that I could redirect to a webhook that returns an HTML page, or a custom page I have.

P.S. I also tried this in 1.77 locally and it doesn’t have that option either.

Trying to push this live today, if there’s a workaround I can do now please let me know.

Thanks!

====================

I have a feature request to set all n8n messaging signatures to OFF by default.

It looks like your topic is missing some important information. Could you provide the following if applicable.

  • n8n version:
  • Database (default: SQLite):
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app):
  • Operating system:

I’d love to have the option for disable the n8n-attribution in the “Send and Wait for Response” mode as well.
Also, the option for sending and attachment in this mode is missing too (using 1.79.1).
I used to implement HITL manually because I need to embed a picture in the outgoing mail using img src="cid:data which is unfortunately not possible in send and wait as the attachment-option is missing.

I changed this post to feature request, feel free to upvote.

A solution I can think for this is having the HITL email be sent to an email you control programmatically, then relay it to the end-user that should receive it, in that process, change the html of the email to remove the n8n branding and add your branding + attachments.
If it’s just approve/reject, you could just try to extract those 2 webhook links, and map them to your own email template buttons, and add the attachment too. (When the user click, that confirmation webhook url still could have the n8n branding, a way to solve that is to create a workflow with webhook trigger + a respond to webhook node. then in the custom email buttons, it’ll be {yourwebhookbaseurl}?url={the extracted HITL webhook url}, and the webhook response should be an HTML that has a JS script that calls the n8n-branded approval webhook with a GET request in the background, while the HTML confirmation front-end could be custom branded)

This might be a bit too complex of a solution for a simple problem, It’s easier when these features are native, but this could be a good work-around while waiting for a release that resolves this…

I’ll throw my hat in the ring as far as customizability goes. We need more abilities! I’ll start by saying there is differences between which email host you send to gmail v outlook which I’m not worried about. When I go to the respond page everything is center justified, which is annoying for a case where the output is mainly text. What about some simple css override abilities?

I Would love to have that level of customizability natively built within n8n as well.


I’ve actually built a relay system/wrapper for the Send and Wait feature as described in my previous message.

The email being sent is custom HTML with the original message extracted from the original n8n default email.
That HTML node on the bottom is a custom HTML that displays the message after the message gets approved or rejected, and sends an HTTP request to the original n8n button on the background when the user opens it [Just a simple countdown while it sends to request, then it closes the page automatically after 3 seconds]

I might release the template here

This is impressive. Great work. I’m about a month into this journey so your initial message seemed daunting, but the diagram makes this far more manageable. I have plenty of development experience, but n8n and no-code is very humbling to say the least.

Here you go

@brahimh hello, did you find a way to remove the signature?

You can from here

But it’ll still show when the user clicks, it’s not fully whitelabel.

I’ve already shared a fully branded workaround here a few months back:

The toggle hides the attribution on the first email, but it still visible on the second step of the process:



It clearly leaks how the whole system is built :upside_down_face:
