Get a received email's body

GET
/v1/email/inbound-messages/{inbound_message_id}/body
bird email inbound-messages body <inbound-message-id>

Returns the parsed, decoded body of a received email as JSON: the html and text parts, each null when the message had no such part. This is the reading-friendly form. For the exact original bytes (headers, signatures, full MIME structure) use Get a received email's raw content. An unknown or expired message returns 404. A message that exists but has no stored content returns both parts null.

Parameters

Received email identifier. Starts with rem_.

Response Payload

html

required

The HTML body of the message, or null when the message had no HTML part.

text
nullable string
