also we are thinking of owning all the emails rather than having some in Descope and some in our platform. It would be great to be able to generate the magic links so we can have a centralized location for our emails. the magic/enchanted links are tied to your email platform.

Hi Carlos. if you set up your own send-grid, you can basically design the whole email, and it will go our from your system. Will this meet your ask for "using one paltform"?
c
Hi sorry! been trying to integrate just the basic sign in! but the one constraint is we can't pass user data even with sendgrid right? the dynamic values are Descope only?
b
Yes. Dynamic values are from descope. Can you elaborate on the use case ? You can add move details on users with custom attributes and those too can be included.
c
yes! so specifically the problem we are running into is with the invite email we would like to add query params of the workspaceId and we have a workaround by just sending the email ourselves. However this leads to some maintainability issues and some of our emails will stored on Descope and some will be stored by us. so we would like to own all the emails to avoid this issue but we can't do that since we can't generate the magic links so there is no way we can own the magic link emails.
b
Ah got it. But is there anything missing on our end that pushes you to want to send the email yourself? (sorry for the late reply... was offline due to son's graduation party)
c
lol no worries congrats to your son! just the ability to send custom params in the invite emails!
b
Got it. So if we were to allow customization of invite emails, with custom attributes - will that solve the challenge?
c
yes it would!
