# Email

Thanks to the plugin Email, you can send email on your server or externals providers such as Sendgrid.

# Usage

await strapi.plugins['email'].services.email.send({
  to: 'admin@strapi.io',
  from: 'robbot@strapi.io',
  replyTo: 'no-reply@strapi.io',
  subject: 'Use strapi email provider successfully',
  text: 'Hello world!',
  html: 'Hello world!'
});

# Install providers

By default Strapi provides a local email system. You might want to send email with Sendgrid or another provider.

To install a new provider run:

$ npm install strapi-email-sendgrid@alpha --save

We have two providers available strapi-email-sendgrid and strapi-upload-mailgun, use the alpha tag to install one of them. Then, visit /admin/plugins/email/configurations/development on your web browser and configure the provider.

If you want to create your own, make sure the name starts with strapi-email- (duplicating an existing one will be easier to create), modify the auth config object and customize the send functions.
