Resend API: sending email, domains and events with AI agents
Resend is an email sending service built for developers, with a simple REST API and SDKs. It is used for transactional email, such as confirmations and notifications, and also for announcements. Access is through an API key created in the dashboard, after you verify the sending domain.

What an iTeam agent does with the Resend API
Service confirmations
After resolving a ticket, the agent sends an email with the summary and next steps, using the company's domain.
Proposals and follow-ups
The sales agent emails the approved proposal and uses the events to see whether it was delivered and opened.
Operational alerts
The operations agent emails suppliers when an order is late, with the history kept in the audit trail.
List cleanup
Using bounce and spam events, the agent marks invalid contacts in the CRM so nobody keeps mailing them.

Restricted key in the vault
Create a send-only key and store it in the iTeam vault, defining which agents can send email and to whom.
