Email Providers
Connect your preferred third-party email providers like Mailgun, Postmark, or SendGrid to send emails directly from your UserFlux. This guide will walk you through adding, configuring, and managing your email provider integrations.
By connecting an email provider, you can centralise your email-sending operations and leverage your existing email infrastructure within UserFlux automations.
Navigating to Email Providers
First, you need to go to the Email Providers management page within your organisation's settings.
In the left-hand navigation sidebar, click on the Account Settings icon.
From the settings menu, select Email Providers.
You will now see the main Email Providers screen, which lists all currently connected providers.
Adding a New Email Provider
You can add multiple provider configurations, including multiple accounts from the same provider (e.g., one for transactional emails and another for marketing).
From the Email Providers screen, click the Add Configuration button in the top-right corner.
An Email Provider configuration modal will appear.
Fill in the required details based on the provider you are connecting.
💡 Tip: Give each configuration a unique and descriptive Name (e.g., "Marketing Mailgun" or "Transactional Postmark") to easily identify it later in your User Flows.

Managing Existing Providers
After adding a provider, you can set it as the default for your workspace or delete it.
On the Email Providers screen, locate the provider configuration you wish to manage.
Click the three-dots menu (...) on the right-hand side of the provider's entry.
Select an option:
Set as default: This will make the selected provider the default option for all new email actions. The current default is indicated by a Default tag.
Delete: This will remove the provider configuration. A confirmation pop-up will appear.
⚠️ Warning: Deleting an email provider configuration that is currently used in an active User Flow will cause that flow to fail. Ensure you update any relevant User Flows before deleting a provider.
Using Your Email Provider
Once configured, your email provider can be selected within the Send Email action across the UserFlux platform. For example in the UserFlows you can use the new provider as part of your Send Email action.
Navigate to Automations > User Flows.
Create a new User Flow or edit an existing one.
Add a Send Email action to your flow.
In the action's configuration panel, you can now select your provider from the Email Provider dropdown menu.
This allows you to direct different types of emails through specific providers, giving you complete control over your communication strategy.
