The API integration was developed for the latest FileMaker version, FileMaker Pro 23, and is also compatible with older FileMaker versions from FileMaker 12 onwards, as well as with the FileMaker Go iOS app. When using attachments, at least FileMaker 18 is required.

The API is super versatile and lends itself to a number of professional use cases. If you are regularly sending transactional emails such as order confirmations, reservation details, welcome emails, appointment reminders, invoices, quotes, portfolios, etc., you can easily utilise the Mail Designer 365 FileMaker API to save time and send beautifully designed emails directly from your FileMaker database.

Currently, the API only supports text placeholders. Image placeholders are on our roadmap for a future release.

Regularly sending booking confirmations, quotes, invoices, welcome emails? Use the API to seamlessly integrate Mail Designer 365 with your FileMaker database and send flawlessly designed transactional email templates to customers, clients, and staff – directly from FileMaker.

We are working on the finishing touches for a new Mail Designer license for all users interested in using the FileMaker Integration. Existing users will be able to cross-upgrade.

You can try out the integration in the FileMaker Go iOS app to send emails using your iPhone or iPad.

You sure can! Our live demo gives you a sneak peek of the FileMaker integration in action. The API will be rolling out publicly in April 2025. Register here for first access!

Create a FileMaker string with all your existing database variables so they correspond with the placeholders in your Mail Designer 365 template. Then, relay these to the FileMaker send script (cURL-based) to enable one-click emails directly from your records. It's that easy!
