Both SDKs send a transactional HTML email in a single call. Mailgun’s client passes the sending domain alongside a multipart message payload, while Bird’s SDK sends JSON and supports both thrown typed errors and result-object branching.

Mailgun

send.ts
import Mailgun from "mailgun.js";
import formData from "form-data";

const mg = new Mailgun(formData).client({
  username: "api",
  key: process.env.MAILGUN_API_KEY!,
});

await mg.messages.create("yourdomain.com", {
  from:    "onboarding@yourdomain.com",
  to:      ["customer@example.com"],
  subject: "Your March invoice",
  html:    "<p>Attached.</p>",
});

Bird

send.ts
import { BirdClient } from "@messagebird/sdk";

const bird = new BirdClient({ apiKey: process.env.BIRD_API_KEY! });

const { data, error } = await bird.email
  .send({
    from:    { email: "onboarding@yourdomain.com", name: "Acme" },
    to:      ["customer@example.com"],
    subject: "Your March invoice",
    html:    "<p>Attached.</p>",
  })
  .safe();

if (error) console.error(error.message);
else console.log(data.id);

¿Qué cambia alrededor de la llamada de envío?

¿Cómo se mapean las rutas de Mailgun a los buzones de Bird?
Mailgun Routes evaluate incoming messages against header or recipient expressions and trigger forwarding or temporary storage. Bird’s agent mailboxes give your app or AI agent persistent inboxes with automatic conversation threading, quote-stripped replies, and sender allowlists. Map your existing route filters to either Bird’s inbound webhook or a managed mailbox before switching your domain’s MX records.
¿Cómo evito envíos duplicados durante la migración?
Store an application-side record for each send and attach an idempotency key when calling Bird. The Mailgun Messages API notes that its inbox-placement test key applies to seed testing: “Retried or duplicate send requests that use the same key will not create additional tests.” For production customer emails, Bird’s 3-hour idempotency window replays the original completed response across network retries so your customer never receives a duplicate message.

¿Qué implica una migración desde Mailgun?

Start by mapping Mailgun’s multipart form parameters and recipient variables to Bird’s JSON send payload and batch entries. Verify your sending domains in Bird and export each Mailgun domain’s bounces, spam complaints, and unsubscribes into Bird’s workspace suppression list using our Mailgun migration guide.

Next, update Mailgun’s HMAC webhook verification to use Standard Webhooks, and map Mailgun’s temporary vs. permanent failure events to Bird’s deferred and bounced webhook events. Test your handlers in Bird’s mail sandbox before switching live traffic, and allow time for automated warm-up on new dedicated IPs.
