Ms Graph Mailer

A custom ActionMailer delivery method that sends emails via Microsoft Graph API using OAuth 2.0 client credentials flow.

• 🚀 Send emails through Microsoft Graph API (v1.0)
• 🔐 OAuth 2.0 authentication with client credentials flow
• 📎 Support for attachments
• 📧 Support for HTML and plain text emails
• 📬 Support for CC, BCC, and Reply-To recipients
• 🔍 Comprehensive error handling and logging
• ⚙️ Configurable SSL verification

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'ms-graph-mailer', git: 'https://github.com/zauberware/ms-graph-mailer'

Then execute:

bundle install

1. Register an application in Azure Active Directory
2. Grant the application Mail.Send API permission (Application permission, not delegated)
3. Generate a client secret
4. Note down:
   • Tenant ID
   • Client ID (Application ID)
   • Client Secret

Create an initializer file config/initializers/ms_graph_mailer.rb:

MsGraphMailer.configure do |config|
  config.tenant_id = ENV['AZURE_MAIL_APP_TENANT_ID']
  config.client_id = ENV['AZURE_MAIL_APP_CLIENT_ID']
  config.client_secret = ENV['AZURE_MAIL_APP_CLIENT_SECRET']
  config.logger = Rails.logger
end

Configure ActionMailer to use the Microsoft Graph delivery method:

# config/environments/production.rb
config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :microsoft_graph
config.action_mailer.microsoft_graph_settings = {
  ssl_verify: true # Set to false to disable SSL verification (not recommended for production)
}

Set the following environment variables:

AZURE_MAIL_APP_TENANT_ID=your-tenant-id
AZURE_MAIL_APP_CLIENT_ID=your-client-id
AZURE_MAIL_APP_CLIENT_SECRET=your-client-secret

Once configured, the gem works automatically with ActionMailer. Just send emails as you normally would:

require 'ms/graph/mailer'

class UserMailer < ApplicationMailer
  def welcome_email(user)
    mail(
      to: user.email,
      subject: 'Welcome to Our App',
      from: 'noreply@example.com'
    )
  end
end

# Send the email
UserMailer.welcome_email(user).deliver_now

• The from email address must be a valid mailbox in your Microsoft 365 tenant
• The Azure AD application must have the necessary permissions to send emails on behalf of the sender
• Emails are sent using the /users/{sender}/sendMail endpoint

The gem raises specific exceptions for different error scenarios:

• MsGraphMailer::ConfigurationError - Invalid or missing configuration
• MsGraphMailer::AuthenticationError - OAuth authentication failures
• MsGraphMailer::DeliveryError - Email delivery failures
