Create an Email Send Definition

This page shows how to create an Email Send Definition that uses data extensions to send emails.

You can use the SOAP API to handle all aspects of the email send definition, including calling information from an existing data extension. This allows you to send an email directly from your development environment or other system.

You can use the sample code to set up your call to create an email send definition. The code uses the following API calls:

1. Create email send definition
2. Perform call to send email using data from data extension

Set up those calls to match your system and add the appropriate code to retrieve the necessary information for your send.
