FAQ

Questions Buttondown owners ask.

  • 01

    Can I check the open rate for a specific email using the agent?

    Yes! Use the get_email_analytics capability with the Email ID. Your agent will fetch the detailed statistics, including deliveries, opens, and clicks, directly from Buttondown.

  • 02

    How do I add a new subscriber with a specific tag?

    Simply ask the agent to create_subscriber and provide the email address and a JSON array of tags, for example: ["customer", "api-lead"]. The subscriber will be added to Buttondown instantly.

  • 03

    Does the integration allow creating a new draft email?

    Yes. Use the create_email action and set the status to draft. You can provide the subject and the body in markdown format, and it will appear in your Buttondown account ready for review.
