Mercado Pago payment link sent by email
Receives a charge request via webhook, creates the Mercado Pago payment link and emails it to the customer.
Everything is created inactive in a new folder of your account. Nothing runs until you activate it, and you can undo it for 24 hours.

What it does
Charge without manual middlemen. When your CRM, form or ERP calls the webhook with the customer, concept and amount, the workflow creates a Mercado Pago payment preference (Checkout Pro) and emails the customer a button to pay. The reference you provide travels with the payment so you can reconcile it later.
What you need: Mercado Pago credentials (Access Token) and an SMTP account.
How to use it: install the template, connect Mercado Pago and SMTP and POST to the webhook with {"email":"ana@example.com","nombre":"Ana","concepto":"October consulting","importe":15000,"referencia":"INV-1001"}.
Note: the default currency is ARS; change it in the Crear link de pago node (for example MXN, CLP, COP, UYU, BRL).
