Use natural language to schedule emails to multiple contacts.
Earlier this week, we introduced the ability to schedule individual emails programatically using the Resend API with the scheduled_at
parameter.
Today, we're excited to announce that you can now schedule broadcasts too.
When you navigate to the Broadcasts page, and click on the "Create Email" button, you will now see an option called "When".
The "When" text input uses natural language to convert your date and time into a valid timestamp. For example, you can type "in 1 hour"
or "tomorrow at 9am"
or "next Monday at 3pm ET"
.
If you don't specify a timezone, the broadcast will be scheduled in the user's local time. If you specify the timezone, the time will be calculated based on that timezone.
Different from the scheduled_at
parameter, which has a short limit of how far in the future you can schedule an email, broadcast scheduling has a much more flexible range.
If you need to update a scheduled broadcast, you can do so by navigating to the specific broadcast.
You will be prompted with a confirmation dialog, and you can choose to update the scheduled time, update the content, or both.
You can start scheduling broadcasts today by going to the Broadcasts page.
