Resend

Learn how to use the Resend provider to send email notifications using Novu

You can use the Resend provider to send transactional emails to your customers using the Novu Platform with a single API to create multi-channel experiences.

Getting Started

To use the Resend provider in the email channel, you will need to create a Resend account and add your API key to the Resend integration on the Novu platform.

Generating an API Key

To generate a new API key in Resend, you can follow these steps:

  • Sign up or Log in to your Resend account.
  • Click on the API Keys link in the left sidebar, and then click the "Create API Key" button on the top right part of the page.
  • On the API Keys page, click the Create API Key button.
  • Give the API key a name and click on the Add button.
  • Copy the generated API Key.

Authenticating your Sender Identity

Before you can send emails on a large scale, you will need to authenticate your Sender Identity.

Resend allows you to authenticate your sender identity using Domain Authentication.

Creating a Resend integration with Novu

  • Visit the Integrations page on Novu.
  • Click on Add a Provider.
  • Select Resend service.
  • Enter your Resend API Key.
  • Fill in the From email address field using the authenticated email from the previous step.
    • For testing, you can use onboarding@resend.dev if you have not authenticated your sender identity.
  • Fill in the Sender's name.
  • Click on the Disabled button and mark it as Active.
  • Click on the Update button.
  • You should now be able to send notifications using Resend in Novu.
