bird email mailboxes compose
Usage
代码示例
bird email mailboxes compose <mailbox-id> [flags]Description
Send a new message from a mailbox
Sends from the mailbox's own address and starts a new conversation. Replies thread back into it automatically. To reply within an existing conversation, use bird email threads messages reply instead.
Build the request from flags, a JSON EmailMailboxComposeRequest body via --body-file ("-" reads
stdin), or both — a flag overrides the matching body field. Run --example to
print a ready-to-edit body, or --dry-run to print the resolved request without
sending it.
Examples
代码示例
# print the body shape (no credentials needed)
bird email mailboxes compose --example
# the body it prints:代码示例
{
"subject": "Your quote",
"text": "Hi, here is the quote you asked for.",
"to": ["delivered@messagebird.dev"]
}代码示例
# preview the resolved request without sending
bird email mailboxes compose <mailbox-id> --to alice@example.com --subject "Hi" --text "Hello" --dry-runOptions
