Resend
Resend is an email API that supports sending transactional email from your own domain. It also manages sending domains, schedules emails, and tracks delivery activity such as bounces and complaints. The Resend connector enables you to send and manage emails and respond to delivery events in Workato.
Use the Resend connector to:
- Send an email to one or more recipients, or send a batch of up to 100 emails.
- Schedule emails, update their scheduled time, or cancel them before delivery.
- Retrieve an email or list emails and sending domains.
- Trigger recipes when an email bounces, receives a complaint, is delayed, or fails.
You can also use custom actions to build a custom HTTP request to any Resend API endpoint. Refer to the Resend API documentation for endpoint details.
