List Emails API
This API allows you to retrieve previously sent emails.
Sample Response
Response Format
The response is a JSON object with the following fields:
has_more
: a boolean indicating whether there are more emails to retrievedata
: an array of JSON email objects. You can find an example of a single JSON email object here.We support excluding the
params
field from the response object, see this section for more information.
Supported Query Parameters
Limit
You can specify the number of emails to return per page using the limit
query parameter. The default value is 10, the minimum value is 1, and the maximum value is 1000.
Offset
You can specify the number of emails to skip using the offset
query parameter. The default value is 0.
Filtering
We currently support the following filters:
status
: return emails with the specified status. For a list of possible values, see this sectiontag
: return emails with the specified tag. This is a user-defined tag that is created when the email is sent. For more information, see this sectioncreated_at
: return emails created within the specified time range; this roughly corresponds to the time when the API call to send the email was made.
For created_at
, the timestamp should be specified in valid ISO 8601 format. The list of supported operators are:
gt
: greater thangte
: greater than or equal tolt
: less thanlte
: less than or equal to
Sorting
The default sorting option is created_at
, descending.
We currently support the following sorting options:
created_at
: sort by the time when the email was created; this roughly corresponds to the time when the API call to send the email was madeupdated_at
: sort by the time when the email was last updated
We support both ascending and descending order.
To specify the order, add the prefix +
for ascending order and -
for descending order. For example, +created_at
will sort by created_at
in ascending order, and -updated_at
will sort by updated_at
in descending order. If the prefix is omitted, descending order will be used.
Excluding params
Field from Response
params
Field from ResponseDepending on the email body
, the params
field could be fairly large and unnecessary to users who are calling this API to retrieve the latest status.
As such, we support an optional exclude_params
field that allows you to exclude the params
field from the response. To do so, set exclude_params
to true
in the query parameters, i.e. GET /transactional/email?exclude_params=true
. If exclude_params
is not specified, the params
field will be included in the response.
