Migrate from Resend

Switch from Resend to SendPigeon in 5 minutes

Migration steps

Replace your Resend API key with SendPigeon. Both use environment variables.

Before (Resend)

RESEND_API_KEY=re_123abc...

After (SendPigeon)

SENDPIGEON_API_KEY=sk_live_abc123...

Change the import statement to use SendPigeon SDK.

Before (Resend)

import { Resend } from "resend";

const resend = new Resend(process.env.RESEND_API_KEY);

After (SendPigeon)

import { SendPigeon } from "sendpigeon";

const client = new SendPigeon(process.env.SENDPIGEON_API_KEY);

SendPigeon uses the same fields. The main difference is method style.

Before (Resend)

await resend.emails.send({
  from: "hello@yourdomain.com",
  to: "user@example.com",
  subject: "Hello",
  html: "<p>Welcome!</p>",
});

After (SendPigeon)

await client.send({
  from: "hello@yourdomain.com",
  to: "user@example.com",
  subject: "Hello",
  html: "<p>Welcome!</p>",
});

If using webhooks, update the event types. Structure is similar.

Before (Resend)

// Resend webhook events
type: "email.sent" | "email.delivered" | "email.bounced"

After (SendPigeon)

// SendPigeon webhook events
type: "email.sent" | "email.delivered" | "email.bounced" | "email.complained"
