## Overview

Amazon Simple Email Service (Amazon SES) integrates with <code class="expression">space.vars.Kizen\_company\_name</code> to provide a reliable, scalable email delivery service for sending transactional and automated emails. This integration allows <code class="expression">space.vars.Kizen\_company\_name</code> to send email using your Amazon SES account, giving you greater control over deliverability, reputation, and sending limits.

### What Is Amazon SES?

## How the Integration Works

When Amazon SES is enabled in <code class="expression">space.vars.Kizen\_company\_name</code>, <code class="expression">space.vars.Kizen\_company\_name</code> uses your SES configuration to send email on your behalf. Emails triggered by workflows, <code class="expression">space.vars.automations</code>, or system actions are passed to Amazon SES, which handles delivery to recipients.

Amazon SES manages the underlying email infrastructure, including sending limits, reputation, and feedback handling, while <code class="expression">space.vars.Kizen\_company\_name</code> manages the content, triggers, and <code class="expression">space.vars.automation</code> logic. This separation allows <code class="expression">space.vars.Kizen\_company\_name</code> to focus on orchestration and workflows, while SES handles reliable email delivery.
