Including Email Signature

I am sending email using the Email API where I provide the body text and to/from info. I have a default signature set in Gmail, but it does not get included in the email that is sent out through Nylas API. Is there any setting that needs to be configured?

Hello @alienator Will check with the team and will come back to you :wink: Although I don’t think we offer that :thinking:

Hello @alienator just confirmed that Gmail doesn’t expose the signature to any external API, hence, we don’t provide it either…

@Blag Thank you for your response.

No problem, happy to help :slight_smile:

When you send emails via the Nylas API, your Gmail email signature is not automatically included since it bypasses the Gmail UI, where it would normally be appended.

If you want your signature included, you’ll need to manually add it to the body of the email in your API call. A good approach is to store your signature as a template or variable and append it to your message before sending.

It would be awesome if Nylas had a setting to pull default signatures directly from the connected account, but for now, it’s all manual.

@DanniePerron thanks for sharing, I’m not sure if this is possible, however, will add this for consideration for upcoming features requests.
