Overview

This API allows developers to programmatically send emails and check their sending quota. It's designed for easy integration into various applications, from simple scripts to complex web platforms.

Base URL

All API requests should be made to the following base URL:

https://saas-email-production.up.railway.app/api

Authentication

All API requests require authentication via an API key. You must include your API key in the x-api-key header of each request.

x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY

Remember to replace YOUR_API_KEY with your actual API key.

Rate Limiting

To ensure fair usage and prevent abuse, the API implements rate limiting. The limits vary based on your subscription tier:

• Free tier: 10 emails per minute, 100 per hour, 1,000 per day
• Standard tier: 50 emails per minute, 500 per hour, 5,000 per day
• Premium tier: 100 emails per minute, 1,000 per hour, 10,000 per day

Be mindful of these limits when integrating the API into your application.

  "description": "A simple email sending utility for the Email Sender API",
  "main": "index.js",
  "scripts": {
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
  },
  "author": "Your Name",
  "license": "ISC",
  "dependencies": {
    "node-fetch": "^3.0.0"
  }
}

2. Publish to npm (Optional)

cd email-sender
npm publish

3. Usage Example

const sendEmail = require('your-package-name');

async function main() {
  try {
    const result = await sendEmail({
      apiKey: "ems_Hr7gMyXSB",
      to: "kushalhail.com",
      from: "ku00@gmail.com",
      subject: "Hello from my npm package!",
      text: "This is a test email sent using my custom npm package.",
    });
    console.log('Email sent successfully:', result);
