mcp-emailjs

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for EmailJS — lets AI agents like Claude send emails, validate configurations, and query email history directly through EmailJS.

⚠️ Required: enable non-browser API access

EmailJS blocks API calls from non-browser environments by default. Since this MCP server runs as a server process (not a browser), you must enable API access or send_email will fail with:

403: API access from non-browser environments is currently disabled.

To enable it:

1. Go to EmailJS Account → Security

2. Turn on "Allow EmailJS API for non-browser applications"

3. Save

get_email_history works without this, but send_email and validate_config require it.

Tools

Known limitations

Templates cannot be created or edited programmatically. EmailJS does not expose a public API for template management — templates must be created and edited through the EmailJS dashboard. This MCP can only use existing templates (by their template_id), not create them.

If you'd like EmailJS to add a template-management API, please 👍 and comment on the feature request: emailjs-sdk#70.

Installation

Claude Desktop

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "emailjs": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-emailjs"],
      "env": {
        "EMAILJS_SERVICE_ID": "your_service_id",
        "EMAILJS_PUBLIC_KEY": "your_public_key",
        "EMAILJS_PRIVATE_KEY": "your_private_key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Config file location:

• macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

• Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

Cursor / other MCP clients

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "emailjs": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-emailjs"],
      "env": {
        "EMAILJS_SERVICE_ID": "your_service_id",
        "EMAILJS_PUBLIC_KEY": "your_public_key",
        "EMAILJS_PRIVATE_KEY": "your_private_key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Environment Variables

*Can be passed per tool call as parameters instead of env vars.

Credential Priority

Credentials are resolved in this order:

1. Parameter passed in the tool call (overrides everything)

2. Environment variable

3. Error with a descriptive message

This allows using multiple EmailJS accounts in the same session.

Usage Examples

Send an email

Send an email using template "template_contact" with:
- to_name: "Alice"
- to_email: "alice@example.com"
- message: "Hello from Claude!"

Validate your config

Validate my EmailJS configuration for service "service_gmail" and template "template_welcome"

Check email history

Show me the last 10 emails I sent via EmailJS

Where to find your credentials
