SES — Email

SES in Floci Studio provides a native interface for managing email identities, sending test emails, and monitoring your send quota — useful for testing email flows without hitting real mail servers.

Verified identities

Before sending, SES requires a verified sender identity. In local emulation, verification is instant.

1. Click SES in the sidebar.
2. Click Verify Address.
3. Enter an email address (e.g., dev@example.com).
4. Click Verify.

The identity appears in the list with a Verified badge immediately.

Send quota

The top bar shows your quota stats:

• Quota 24h — maximum emails per day
• Sent 24h — emails sent in the last 24 hours
• Rate — maximum messages per second
• Verified — count of verified identities

Sending a test email

Click Send Email in the header. Fill in:

• From — must be a verified identity
• To — any address
• Subject
• Body

Click Send Email. The event stream logs the call with SES.SendEmail.

In local emulation, emails are captured and visible in Mailpit if you have that marketplace recipe running.

Managing identities

Hover any identity row to reveal action buttons:

• Send (arrow icon) — opens the send modal with this address pre-filled as From
• Delete (trash icon) — removes the identity

SDK integration

import boto3

ses = boto3.client("ses", endpoint_url="http://localhost:4566",
                   region_name="us-east-1",
                   aws_access_key_id="test", aws_secret_access_key="test")

# Verify an identity
ses.verify_email_identity(EmailAddress="dev@example.com")

# Send an email
ses.send_email(
    Source="dev@example.com",
    Destination={"ToAddresses": ["user@acme.com"]},
    Message={
        "Subject": {"Data": "Order confirmed", "Charset": "UTF-8"},
        "Body": {"Text": {"Data": "Your order #4419 is confirmed.", "Charset": "UTF-8"}},
    },
)

# Get quota
quota = ses.get_send_quota()
print(f"Sent: {quota['SentLast24Hours']} / {quota['Max24HourSend']}")

Pairing with Mailpit

Deploy the Mailpit recipe from the Marketplace to capture all outgoing emails in a browser-based inbox:

1. Go to Marketplace in the sidebar.
2. Find Mailpit (SMTP) and click Deploy.
3. Open http://localhost:8025 — all emails sent via SES appear here.
