    Not sure if I'm reading this right, but have you looked at using an event trigger?

    To send emails you can just use the Send Email node in your process which is called via an API.

    Yes. For a more specific answer, we need way more details.

    It depends on your design. Based on the description you mentioned, I assume you already have the schedular for API call, if that is the case you can call send email node just before and after the API call (if using PM).

    I'm a little unclear why this can't just be handled by standard Send Email node(s) behind standard Timer node(s).  Like, it doesn't seem all that clear why API calls are even relevant to this setup.
