Mandrill

Profile Requirements

To deliver a message to a recipient over Mandrill, Courier must be provided the recipient's email address. This value should be included in the recipient profile as email.

JSON

{
  "message": {
    // Recipient Profile
    "to": {
      "email": "example@example.com"
    }

    // ... rest of message definition
  }
}

Override

You can use a provider override to replace what we send to Mandrill's Messages API. For example, you can add an attachment to your request:

JSON

{
  "message": {
    "template": "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ",
    "to": {
      "email": "example@example.com"
    },
    "providers": {
      "mandrill": {
        "override": {
          "body": {
            "message": {
              "attachments": [
                {
                  "type": "text/plain",
                  "name": "myfile.txt",
                  "content": "ZXhhbXBsZSBmaWxl"
                }
              ]
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Everything inside of messageproviders.mandrill.override will replace what we send to Mandrill's Messages API. You can see all the available options by visiting Mandrill API docs.
