Setting Up Email for Job Processing

To use email for submitting conversion jobs in Excelifier, follow the initial setup steps:

  1. Add Email Address: Navigate to the "Emails" page in your Excelifier account to add a new email address for sending documents.
  2. Automatic Email Generation: After adding a new email, Excelifier generates a unique email address. Remember this address for sending your documents for conversion.
  3. Configuration: Check for additional configurable options for jobs submitted through email, including file types and conversion settings to ensure they meet your document processing needs.
note

Receiving Addresses: You can define as many receiving addresses as you need. It can be useful to have a specific inbox for each type of document for webhook processing.

Sending Documents for Conversion

With your email setup complete, sending documents for conversion is simple:

  • Email Your Document: Attach your document to an email and send it to the unique email address generated by Excelifier.
  • Processing: The document will be automatically processed once received. The time it takes to process a document can vary depending on the size and complexity of the file.
  • Receiving Converted Documents: Once the document is processed, you'll receive the converted file back via email. Additionally, you can download the processed file from the Excelifier dashboard if needed.
tip

Email Forwarding: You can use a human-readable format such as invoices(at)excelifier.com and automatically forward emails to the generated email address.
