README

Official PHP SDK for the SendKit email API.

Installation

composer require sendkit/sendkit-php

Usage

Create a Client

use SendKit\SendKit;

$client = SendKit::client('your-api-key');

Send an Email

$response = $client->emails()->send([
    'from' => 'you@example.com',
    'to' => 'recipient@example.com',
    'subject' => 'Hello from SendKit',
    'html' => '<h1>Welcome!</h1>',
]);

echo $response['id']; // Email ID

Send a MIME Email

$response = $client->emails()->sendMime(
    envelopeFrom: 'you@example.com',
    envelopeTo: 'recipient@example.com',
    rawMessage: $mimeString,
);

echo $response['id'];

Contacts

Create or Update a Contact (Upsert)

$contact = $client->contacts()->create([
    'email' => 'john@example.com',
    'first_name' => 'John',
    'last_name' => 'Doe',
    'unsubscribed' => false,
    'list_ids' => ['list-uuid-1', 'list-uuid-2'],
    'properties' => ['COMPANY' => 'Acme'],
]);

echo $contact['id'];

If a contact with that email already exists, it will be updated instead.

List Contacts

$contacts = $client->contacts()->list();
$contacts = $client->contacts()->list(['page' => 2]);

$contacts['data'];           // array of contacts
$contacts['meta']['total'];  // total count

Get a Contact

$contact = $client->contacts()->get('contact-uuid');

Update a Contact

$contact = $client->contacts()->update('contact-uuid', [
    'first_name' => 'Johnny',
    'unsubscribed' => true,
]);

Delete a Contact

$client->contacts()->delete('contact-uuid');

Add a Contact to Lists

$contact = $client->contacts()->addToLists('contact-uuid', ['list-uuid-1', 'list-uuid-2']);

List a Contact's Lists

$lists = $client->contacts()->listLists('contact-uuid');
$lists = $client->contacts()->listLists('contact-uuid', ['page' => 2]);

Remove a Contact from a List

$client->contacts()->removeFromList('contact-uuid', 'list-uuid');

Contact Properties

Create a Property

$property = $client->contactProperties()->create([
    'key' => 'company',
    'type' => 'string',           // "string", "number", or "date"
    'fallback_value' => 'N/A',    // optional
]);

echo $property['id'];

List Properties

$properties = $client->contactProperties()->list();
$properties = $client->contactProperties()->list(['page' => 2]);

Update a Property

$property = $client->contactProperties()->update('property-uuid', [
    'key' => 'organization',
    'fallback_value' => 'Unknown',
]);

Delete a Property

$client->contactProperties()->delete('property-uuid');

Note: A SendKitException with status 409 is thrown if the property is used in segment filters.

Validate an Email

$result = $client->validateEmail('recipient@example.com');

$result['is_valid'];       // "HIGH" or "LOW"
$result['should_block'];   // true if the email should be blocked
$result['block_reason'];   // reason for blocking, or null
$result['evaluations'];    // detailed evaluation results

The evaluations array contains:

  • has_valid_syntax — whether the email has valid syntax
  • has_valid_dns — whether the domain has valid DNS records
  • mailbox_exists — whether the mailbox exists
  • is_role_address — whether it's a role address (e.g. info@, admin@)
  • is_disposable — whether it's a disposable email
  • is_random_input — whether it appears to be random input

Note: Each validation costs credits. A SendKitException with status 402 is thrown when credits are insufficient.

Error Handling

use SendKit\Exceptions\SendKitException;

try {
    $client->emails()->send([...]);
} catch (SendKitException $e) {
    echo $e->getMessage(); // Error message
    echo $e->status;       // HTTP status code
}
