Common Setup
Authentication
Postmark uses two types of API tokens:
| Token | Header | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| Server Token | X-Postmark-Server-Token | Sending emails, templates, bounces, webhooks, message streams |
| Account Token | X-Postmark-Account-Token | Managing servers, domains, sender signatures |
Get your Server API Token from Postmark Servers.
SDK Installation
Detect the project language and install the appropriate SDK:
| File | Language | Install Command |
|---|---|---|
package.json | Node.js / TypeScript | npm install postmark |
requirements.txt / pyproject.toml | Python | pip install postmarker |
Gemfile | Ruby | gem install postmark |
composer.json | PHP | composer require wildbit/postmark-php |
*.csproj / *.sln | .NET | dotnet add package Postmark |
Message Streams
Postmark separates email by intent into Message Streams:
| Stream | Value | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Transactional | outbound | 1:1 triggered emails (welcome, password reset, receipts) — default |
| Broadcast | broadcast | Marketing, newsletters, announcements |
Never mix transactional and broadcast email in the same stream — it damages deliverability.
