Best Practices

Use Templates

Create reusable templates for consistent branding and easier maintenance. Templates support variables and make it easy to update designs without changing code.

Handle Errors Gracefully

Always check for success and handle errors appropriately. Use type guards for type safety and implement retry logic for transient errors.

Monitor Rate Limits

Monitor rate limit headers and implement queuing for high-volume sends. Respect rate limits to ensure reliable delivery.
