Can we use API to use the smartermail compose email WYSIWYG Editor ?

Question asked by Curtis Kropar www.HawaiianHope.org - 6/12/2025 at 1:10 PM

HI ! So, I was able to use the API and send out an email to a list of addresses. I am Incredibly thrilled about this. To generate the actual body content, Inside of the code for the page i created the HTML code for the email. I know there are other ways to do this, but this was my first test.

So a question I have is, Is there a way though the API, to access the normal SmarterMail WYSIWYG Editor, (not the to and from stuff) and embed that editor box into a web page ? For instance I want to use our software and compose an email, with mail merge fields that we built, but i do not want to have to recreate a WYSIWYG Editor from scratch.

If this is not possible, then what WYSIWYG Editor should i look at that i can integrate with SmarterMail .... what does SmarterMail use ?

So, is there no way to access the one already in smartermail, we would have to integrate one like this on our own ?

I just sent them a message. Thanks !

Hey, Curtis

No, there's no way to embed the existing SmarterMail compose window into a web page, either natively or via the API. Froala may allow you to embed AN editor into a page, then you'd use a Javascript mailer or some other script-based process to send the message that's composed.
