This email format, designed by Zenvia Conversion, is intended to simplify the app's connection with other systems, which is able to work with an email type that is very simple to construct.

Keep in mind that Zenvia Conversion prioritizes resolving bugs that occur in this format, so we recommend using it whenever possible.

 

How can I check whether my email format is correct?

Zenvia Conversion has an email address that you can send test emails to:

[email protected]

We'll explain how to send emails to this address below.

 

Email subject

Should be one of the following:

  • Zenvia - Email Estándar

  • Zenvia - Standard Email

  • Zenvia - Email Padrão

make sure the subject does not include "FWD" if you are forwarding the email.

 

Email body

The body of the email should not include HTML. It must be plain text and needs to comply with the following 3 requirements:

  • The content of the email should contain only text and must be structured in a "field: value" format.

  • Each field should be separated by a line break.

  • The names of the fields should match the fields in the following tables.
