| 4 | +======== |
| 5 | + |
| 6 | +Anymail integrates with `Mailtrap <https://mailtrap.io/>`_'s |
| 7 | +transactional, bulk, or test email services, using the corresponding |
| 8 | +`REST API`_. |
| 9 | + |
| 10 | +.. note:: |
| 11 | + |
| 12 | + By default, Anymail connects to Mailtrap's transactional API servers. |
| 13 | + If you are using Mailtrap's bulk send service, be sure to change the |
| 14 | + :setting:`MAILTRAP_API_URL <ANYMAIL_MAILTRAP_API_URL>` Anymail setting |
| 15 | + as shown below. Likewise, if you are using Mailtrap's test email service, |
| 16 | + be sure to set :setting:`MAILTRAP_TESTING_ENABLED <ANYMAIL_MAILTRAP_TESTING_ENABLED>` |
| 17 | + and :setting:`MAILTRAP_TEST_INBOX_ID <ANYMAIL_MAILTRAP_TEST_INBOX_ID>`. |

| 22 | +Settings |
| 23 | +-------- |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +.. rubric:: EMAIL_BACKEND |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +To use Anymail's Mailtrap backend, set: |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | + .. code-block:: python |
| 30 | +
|
| 31 | + EMAIL_BACKEND = "anymail.backends.mailtrap.EmailBackend" |
| 32 | +
|
| 33 | +in your settings.py. |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | +.. setting:: ANYMAIL_MAILTRAP_API_TOKEN |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | +.. rubric:: MAILTRAP_API_TOKEN |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +Required for sending: |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | + .. code-block:: python |
| 43 | +
|
| 44 | + ANYMAIL = { |
| 45 | + ... |
| 46 | + "MAILTRAP_API_TOKEN": "<your API token>", |
| 47 | + } |
| 48 | +
|
| 49 | +Anymail will also look for ``MAILTRAP_API_TOKEN`` at the |
| 50 | +root of the settings file if neither ``ANYMAIL["MAILTRAP_API_TOKEN"]`` |
| 51 | +nor ``ANYMAIL_MAILTRAP_API_TOKEN`` is set. |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +.. setting:: ANYMAIL_MAILTRAP_API_URL |
| 55 | + |
| 56 | +.. rubric:: MAILTRAP_API_URL |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +The base url for calling the Mailtrap API. |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +The default is ``MAILTRAP_API_URL = "https://send.api.mailtrap.io/api"``, which connects |
| 61 | +to Mailtrap's transactional service. You must change this if you are using Mailtrap's bulk |
| 62 | +send service. For example, to use the bulk send service: |
| 63 | + |
| 64 | + .. code-block:: python |
| 65 | +
|
| 66 | + ANYMAIL = { |
| 67 | + "MAILTRAP_API_TOKEN": "...", |
| 68 | + "MAILTRAP_API_URL": "https://bulk.api.mailtrap.io/api", |
| 69 | + # ... |
| 70 | + } |
| 71 | +
|
| 72 | +
|
| 73 | +.. setting:: ANYMAIL_MAILTRAP_TESTING_ENABLED |
| 74 | + |
| 75 | +.. rubric:: MAILTRAP_TESTING_ENABLED |
| 76 | + |
| 77 | +Use Mailtrap's test email service by setting this to ``True``, and providing |
| 78 | +:setting:`MAILTRAP_TEST_INBOX_ID <ANYMAIL_MAILTRAP_TEST_INBOX_ID>`: |
| 79 | + |
| 80 | + .. code-block:: python |
| 81 | +
|
| 82 | + ANYMAIL = { |
| 83 | + "MAILTRAP_API_TOKEN": "...", |
| 84 | + "MAILTRAP_TESTING_ENABLED": True, |
| 85 | + "MAILTRAP_TEST_INBOX_ID": "<your test inbox id>", |
| 86 | + # ... |
| 87 | + } |
| 88 | +
|
| 89 | +By default, Anymail will switch to using Mailtrap's test email service API: ``https://sandbox.api.mailtrap.io/api``. |
| 90 | + |
| 91 | +.. setting:: ANYMAIL_MAILTRAP_TEST_INBOX_ID |
| 92 | + |
| 93 | +.. rubric:: MAILTRAP_TEST_INBOX_ID |
| 94 | + |
| 95 | +Required if :setting:`MAILTRAP_TESTING_ENABLED <ANYMAIL_MAILTRAP_TESTING_ENABLED>` is ``True``. |

| 111 | +Status tracking webhooks |
| 112 | +------------------------ |
| 113 | + |
| 114 | +If you are using Anymail's normalized :ref:`status tracking <event-tracking>`, enter |
| 115 | +the url in the Mailtrap webhooks config for your domain. (Note that Mailtrap's sandbox domain |
| 116 | +does not trigger webhook events.) |
