Sending Campaigns via MCP Server

The `dispatch_email` tool lets your whole team send emails through SendGrid’s SMTP relay. Don't forget that the 'from_email' must use a verified sender identity. This allows you to commit code that reliably sends HTML content across the organization.

Auditing Marketing Lists

You can list all available contacts with `list_marketing_contacts` and check out full details for a specific user using `search_contact_by_email`. This makes it easy to audit who's on which lists. For campaign scope, the team can also view single-send campaigns via `list_single_sends`.

Tracking Deliverability Status

The MCP Server helps track performance using `get_delivery_stats`, which requires a YYYY-MM-DD date input. This gives the team visibility into global delivery rates. For cleanups, `list_bounces` pulls all bounced records for review.
