Filtering Bounce Emails by Date and Time in Mailgun with Laravel

When working with email services, monitoring bounce rates is crucial for maintaining a healthy email delivery system. If you’re using Mailgun's API with Laravel, you might encounter a challenge: retrieving bounce emails within a specific timeframe, such as the last hour. In this guide, I’ll outline a solution to filter bounce emails effectively based on date and time using the Mailgun Events API.

The Problem

Mailgun's Bounces API provides you with a comprehensive list of all bounce emails. However, if you're only interested in bounce emails that occurred in the last hour, this direct method won't suffice since it lacks filtering capabilities for time. The question arises: how can you retrieve only the bounce emails from the last hour using Laravel?

The Solution: Using Mailgun's Events API

To tackle this issue, the solution lies in utilizing the Mailgun Events API instead of the Bounces API. The Events API allows you to filter event data based on certain parameters, including the time span, making it a better choice for your needs.

Step-by-Step Guide

Here’s how to implement this in your Laravel application:

Set Up Carbon for Date Handling

Ensure you have included the Carbon library to help with date and time manipulation. Laravel uses Carbon by default, so it should be readily available.

Define Time Range

You need to establish both the beginning and end of the time window you want to check (in this case, the last hour). Here’s how you can do that:

Make the API Call

Replace the Bounces API call with the Events API call. Here’s the code you will need:

In this code:

You are calling the Mailgun Events API endpoint.

You specify the event type as failed to filter for bounce emails (bounces are considered failed deliveries).

You set the begin and end parameters to limit results to the last hour.

Conclusion

By following the steps outlined above, you can filter bounce emails from Mailgun effectively. The Events API not only allows for targeted queries but also helps ensure that you keep your email lists up-to-date and minimize delivery issues.

If you found this solution helpful, feel free to share it with others who might face the same challenge. With the right tools and knowledge, maintaining your email delivery health can be a smooth process.

Thanks for reading, and good luck with your Laravel and Mailgun integration!
