Have you tried network.request()?  If they support REST that will be easy.

Hi Sphere Game Studio,

This is what I am trying to do, but the only example I have is Curl :

curl -s --user 'api:YOUR\_API\_KEY' \ https://api.mailgun.net/v3/YOUR\_DOMAIN\_NAME/messages \ -F from='Excited User \<YOU@YOUR\_DOMAIN\_NAME\>' \ -F to=alice@example.com \ -F to=bob@example.com \ -F recipient-variables='{"bob@example.com": {"first":"Bob", "id":1}, "alice@example.com": {"first":"Alice", "id": 2}}' \ -F subject='Hey, %recipient.first%' \ -F text='If you wish to unsubscribe, click http://mailgun/unsubscribe/%recipient.id%'

I am not very proficient with this, but I am trying to make it work. If you have hint where to look, please do not hesitate to direct me to some URL :slight_smile:

thanks
Nick

Hi,

If you haven’t figured this out yet, I can give it a go. I work with converting these “curl” things quite a bit.
