Prerequisites

Before you start, you’ll need:
  • A Resend API key
  • A verified domain
  • Have a Cloudflare worker with a bundling setup
    • Recommended to be bootstrapped with npm create cloudflare

​
Guide

1

Install

Get the Resend Node.js SDK.
npm install resend
2

Create an email template

Start by creating your email template on src/emails/email-template.tsx:
src/emails/email-template.tsx
import * as React from 'react';

interface EmailTemplateProps {
  firstName: string;
}

export function EmailTemplate({ firstName }: EmailTemplateProps) {
  return (
    <div>
      <h1>Welcome, {firstName}!</h1>
    </div>
  );
}

export default EmailTemplate;
3

Send the email using React and the SDK

Change the file extension of the worker’s main file to tsx and modify your configurations.After that, you can send your email using the react parameter:
src/index.tsx
import { Resend } from 'resend';
import { EmailTemplate } from './emails/email-template';

export default {
  async fetch(request, env, context): Promise<Response> {
    const resend = new Resend('re_xxxxxxxxx');

    const data = await resend.emails.send({
      from: 'Acme <onboarding@resend.dev>',
      to: ['delivered@resend.dev'],
      subject: 'hello world',
      react: <EmailTemplate firstName="John" />,
    });

    return Response.json(data);
  },
} satisfies ExportedHandler<Env, ExecutionContext>;
4

Deploy and send email

Run wrangler deploy and wait for it to finish. Once it’s done, it will give you a URL to try out, like https://my-worker.your_name.workers.dev, that you can open and verify that your email has been sent.
