People - Email for Users vs. Admins Only

hello @Ethan, thanks for bringing this back up!! I have asked our Product team to provide an update.

in the meantime, have you considered using a service such as SendGrid to send an email to an arbitrary string as you mention?? here’s a quick demo:

  1. create an account on SendGrid and get your API credentials (you will also need to register and verify an email)
  2. set up your Connector Function with the credentials you just created:
    Host: api.sendgrid.com
    Headers:

Authorization: Bearer {{your API}}
Content-Type: application/json


3. create a function to send the email:

Method: POST
Endpoint: /v3/mail/send
Request Body:

{“personalizations”:
[{“to”: [{“email”: “$to$”}]}],
“from”: {“email”: “{{enter your email}}”},
“subject”: “$subject$”,
“content”: [{“type”: “text/plain”, “value”: “$body$”}]}

  1. run the Connector Function from an app

this will send emails as follows:


of course, you can modify the recipient, subject line and body to be anything you’d like.

would this help in what you’re trying to build?? let us know!!
