titleUnderstanding the solution

Here we are looking into a scenario where there are three emails namely, Review Email, Promotion Email, and Confidential Email which are sent by different users to an individual's mailbox. These emails will eventually reach a junction which in Snaplogic is called a Router Snap, that helps in routing the input to specified endpoints. Now, the emails are delivered to three different endpoints through the Snaps, Move Email, Mark Email As Read and Flag Email which have been designated in Snap Settings respectively.

Key Steps

  1. Send emails and configure Throttle Bot Snap.
  2. Search an email emails and categorize Router Snapto route them to respective Snaps.
  3. Organize emails received from sources.

Send emails and configure Throttle Bot Snap

Here, we are going send three emails, which are uniquely categorized, to an individual's mailbox. 

We will set up a Pipeline using three Send Email Snaps naming them according to their categories, Review Email, Promotion Email, and Confidential Email. We are also connecting another Snap, Throttle Bot Snap, which throttles all the incoming document at the configured throttle speed.

The following portion of the Pipeline will process the emails:

We will configure the Snap Settings for all the three Snaps and also preview the output as to confirming about the emails being sent.
