Mailgun
Mailgun is an email delivery service for sending, receiving, and tracking emails. You can use a webhook in the Mailgun platform to forward inbound and outbound email events to the Sumo Logic HTTP endpoint. Using these logs, you can monitor the entire email communication lifecycle, events such as accepted, rejected, delivered, and failed messages, as well as recipient interactions like opened, clicked, unsubscribed, and complained events in Sumo Logic. For more details, refer to the Mailgun Documentation.
Event types
The Sumo Logic integration for Mailgun ingests email events into Sumo Logic through an outgoing webhook available in Mailgun. For more information on supported events that are ingested through the Mailgun webhook, see the Mailgun Documentation.
