By default, the developer portal sends emails in response to certain events. For example, when a new app developer registers on the portal, the portal automatically sends an account verification email to the provided email address.
Configure the following email settings for all email notifications originating from the portal:
-
Configure the SMTP serverfor all email notifications, as described in Configuring an SMTP server
-
Configure the contents of the email notifications, as described in Configuring email notifications .
Configure an SMTP server
When a portal is first provisioned, email notifications are sent to portal users from a generic sender address, noreply-apigee-portals@google.com
. This approach is suitable for evaluation, but you should configure
your own SMTP server before launching your portal to users. When you configure the SMTP server, you can also configure the sender address, for example, no-reply@mycompany.com
.
