mailjet

Verified Jul 2026

Mailjet's REST API sends transactional and marketing email, manages contact lists and MJML/HTML templates, and reports on delivery and engagement events. It authenticates with HTTP Basic Auth using a public/private API key pair rather than a single token, confirmed live via a `WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="Provide an apiKey and secretKey"` challenge, and shows no CORS headers on GET or OPTIONS, making it a server-side-only API like most transactional email providers.

Auth quickstart

  1. Sign up with the provider to get an API key.
  2. Send it on every request as a headerAuthorization: <key>
  3. The exact header isn't documented — Authorization is a common default; confirm in the provider's docs.
Stored keyNo key stored

Your key is stored only in this browser (localStorage) and sent directly to the API — never to greatapis.
