How do I send a test email from an email template version?

Objective

This article shows you how to send a test message from an email template version so you can see how it renders in a real inbox before you use it for live sends.

 

Product

Twilio Email

 

Environment

Twilio Console

 

Procedure

  1. In the Twilio Console, select Communications in the left sidebar.
  2. Select Messaging, then Templates.
  3. Select the Email tab, then Your templates.
  4. Expand the template, select Open menu on the version's row, then select Edit template version.
  5. In the editor, open the test email option.
  6. Choose the from address and enter the recipient addresses you want the test sent to.
  7. Send the test. A confirmation appears when it has been sent.

 

Additional Information

  • The from address list only offers domains that are authenticated and valid on your account. If the list is empty, authenticate a sending domain first under Communications › Email › Domains.
  • The test is sent using the version you currently have open, so you can compare versions by testing each one.
  • If sending fails, an error message explains why.
