Maybe you want to send an email when a new member of your website has complete the registration process, to do this just go to your model (/api/member/models/Member.js)
Then edit the afterCreate method like this:
// After creating a value.
// Fired after an `insert` query.
afterCreate: async (model, attrs, options) => {
const member = model.attributes;
return await strapi.plugins['email'].services.email.send({
to: member.email,
from: '[email protected]',
replyTo: '[email protected]',
subject: 'Welcome!',
text: `Welcome to our website, ${member.name}`,
html: '... the html of your email!'
});
},
