Email integrations
In order to successfully send emails, you'll need to configure an email provider. See our guide for configuring a message service.
An Email integration allows Fides to send emails on your behalf when certain events occur, for example sending an email when an erasure request is submitted.
Configuration
All email integrations are configured with the following environment variables:
FIDES__EXECUTION__EMAIL_SEND_CRON_EXPRESSION
FIDES__EXECUTION__EMAIL_SEND_TIMEZONE
More information about these configurations can be found in the execution configuration options.
Running
Emails generated by integrations will be dispatched according to the environment variables mentioned above. If you need to dispatch awaiting batches immediately you can call POST {baseUrl}/api/v1/privacy-request/administrate/process-awaiting-email-send
