REST Email Provider

Sometimes other providers are needed besides SMTP. To give full flexibility, Curity provides a REST API towards which the organization can build a small Mailer REST service. This allows the organization to integrate against any Email provider without having to extend the functionality of Curity in a simple manner.

Configuration#

To configure the REST Email Provider, a REST client configuration is required.

ConfigurationMandatoryDescription
hostnameYesThe hostname or IP address of the web service.
portYesThe port of the web service. Default is set to 80.
contextNoThe URL path or context of the web service.
http-clientYesThe reference to the Http Client.
default-senderYesAn email address (RFC 822) that is used as the sender of each outgoing email message, accepting two formats: "user@host.domain" or "User Name <user@host.domain>".

The above parameters are used to configure the REST email provider in the facilities section.
