Sending Emails

Via Automation

The most common way to send emails is through automations:

{
  "type": "send_email",
  "config": {
    "template_id": "tmpl_welcome",
    "to": "{{record.email}}",
    "subject": "Welcome to {{org.name}}!",
    "from_name": "{{sender.name}}",
    "reply_to": "{{sender.email}}"
  }
}

Manual Send

Step

Navigate to the record you want to email.

Step

Click "Send Email"

Find the email action in the record menu.

Email Tracking

Open and click tracking is enabled by default. You can disable it per template if needed for privacy-sensitive communications.

Domain Authentication

Improve deliverability by authenticating your sending domain:

Step

Navigate to Settings

Go to Settings → Communications → Sending Domains.

Step

Add Your Domain

Enter the domain you want to send from (e.g., company.com).

Step

Add DNS Records

Add the provided SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records to your DNS.

Step

Verify

Click "Verify" to confirm the records are properly configured.

Important for Deliverability

Without domain authentication, your emails may land in spam folders. Complete verification before sending to customers.
