# Resend Integration
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
`@botpresshub/resend` is an integration that allows a Botpress chatbot to send emails via the Resend API.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
### Authenticating your domain (https://resend.com/domains)
|
|
|
|
1. Login to the Resend dashboard (https://resend.com/)
|
|
2. In the navigation bar on the left, click on "Domains"
|
|
3. Near the top-right, click "Add Domain"
|
|
4. In the "Name" field, enter your domain (e.g. "Botpress.com")
|
|
5. (Optional) Select the server region closest to your user base
|
|
6. (Optional) Customize the return path (Only recommended if you know what this does)
|
|
7. Click "Add Domain" (Below "Advanced options")
|
|
8. Add the DNS records in the portal of your domain provider (e.g. SquareSpace, GoDaddy, etc.)
|
|
1. While the DMARC record is optional, it's recommended to protect against spoofing/unauthorized use of the domain
|
|
9. Click "I've added the records" and wait for each status to be marked as "Verified"
|
|
10. Now you're ready to send emails with your domain. Happy Emailing!
|
|
|
|
### Acquiring an API key (https://resend.com/api-keys)
|
|
|
|
1. Login to the Resend dashboard (https://resend.com/)
|
|
2. In the navigation bar on the left, click on "API Keys"
|
|
3. Near the top-right, click "Create API Key"
|
|
4. Give the key a name & grant the key "Sending Access"
|
|
1. Optionally, choose which domains you want the key to send emails through
|
|
5. Click "Add" to generate the API Key
|
|
6. Copy the resulting API key into a secure location as it will only be shown once
|
|
|
|
### Setting up Webhooks (https://resend.com/webhooks)
|
|
|
|
1. Login to the Resend dashboard (https://resend.com/)
|
|
2. In the navigation bar on the left, click on "Webhooks"
|
|
3. Near the top-right, click "Add Webhook"
|
|
4. Copy the webhook URL from the Botpress integration config & paste it into Resend's "Endpoint URL" input field
|
|
5. Select which webhook events you want to listen for
|
|
6. Click "Add" (Below the "Select events to listen" section)
|
|
7. (Optional, but recommended) Copy the "Signing Secret" from Resend and paste it into the "Webhook Signing Secret" of the Botpress integration config
|
|
8. Now your bot is ready to listen for events from Resend
|
|
|
|
## Side Notes
|
|
|
|
The current implementation is limited to only sending [markdown](https://spec.commonmark.org/0.31.2/) rich-text emails, though this will be expanded upon in the future.
