Not able to send messages

See original GitHub issue

I was able to successfully use mailgun-js to add someone to a mailing list, but I’m running into an error (404) sending a message. Sounds like the endpoint may not be configured properly?

Note - I was able to send an email using the curl example in the api docs, so I don’t think it’s an issue with my DNS settings.

Code used:


var api_key = MY_KEY;
var domain = 'https://api.mailgun.net/v3/WWW.MYSITE.COM';
var mailgun = require('mailgun-js')({apiKey: api_key, domain: domain});

    var data = {
      from: 'Me <me@me.com>',
      to: 'example_email@something.com',
      subject: 'Hello',
      html: 'oh hi'
    }

    mailgun.messages().send(data, function (err, body) {
        if (err) {
          console.log("got an error: ", err);
        }
    });

error:
