Ephemail

Ephemeral inbox API for end-to-end testing and magic link verification

Testing Made Simple

Stop using real email accounts or complex test infrastructure. Ephemail provides receive-only ephemeral inboxes via API, purpose-built for E2E testing workflows.

// Create ephemeral inbox
const inbox = await ephemail.createInbox();
// inbox.email: "test-abc123@ephemail.declytic.com"

// Trigger your app's magic link flow
await yourApp.sendMagicLink(inbox.email);

// Retrieve the email
const messages = await ephemail.getMessages(inbox.id);
const magicLink = extractLink(messages[0].html);

// Continue your test flow
await page.goto(magicLink);
