Creating an Approved Sender

Register a sender email address to be used for email delivery.

• Console
• CLI
• API

• 1. Open the navigation menu and click Developer Services. Under Application Integration, click Email Delivery. Under Email Delivery, click Approved Senders. Ensure that you're in the correct compartment. The user must be in a group with permissions to manage approved-senders in this compartment.
  2. On the Approved Senders page, click Approved Sender.
  3. In the Create Approved Sender dialog box, provide the following information:
     • Enter the email address that you want to list as an approved sender.
     • (Optional) Add tags to organize resource. To apply a defined tag, you must have permissions to use the tag namespace. For more information about tagging, see Resource Tags. If you're not sure whether to apply tags, skip this option (you can apply tags later) or ask the administrator.
  4. Click Create Approved Sender.
     The email address is added to Approved Senders list.

  Tip
  
  Approved senders are unique to regions. If you try to create a duplicate approved sender within a region, the service returns a 409 Conflict error.

  Note
  
  When an approved sender is created, it might not be immediately available for use. To work around this specific issue, we recommend that you create an approved sender and try to immediately use it. If an SMTP authorization failure occurs, perform a retry with backoff.

  Tip
  
  To send email from many addresses with the same domain:

  1. Configure DKIM for the domain providing authorization to send from the domain.
  2. When DKIM is active, create the approved sender @domain.com.

  Warning
  
  If DKIM isn't active, you can't create the approved sender.

• Use the create command and required parameters to create a sender for a tenancy in a given compartment.
