&to=test@cleanshavenapps.com,random@dispatchapp.net
&cc=cc@cleanshavenapps.com
&body=Hello%20world%2C%0A%0AThis%20is%20an%20email%20composed%20with%20the%20Dispatch%20%2Fcompose%20URL%20scheme.%0A%0A%E2%80%94%20Dispatch
Note
Please take note of the triple /// in x-dispatch:///compose when using the URL scheme.
x-callback-url
Dispatch now supports the x-callback-url protocol developed by Greg Pierce. All x-callback-url parameters are optional. Fill up at least x-success if you want Dispatch to offer to return you to x-source.
x-source
Optional. A friendly name for the app making the call.
x-success
Optional. The URL to use to return the user to the calling application if the user sends the mail. This does not guarantee that the mail has been sent; it only means that the user has followed through the composing process and tap on Send.
x-cancel
Optional. The URL to use to return the user to the calling application if the user cancels the composing process. If not provided, Dispatch will call the URL in x-success instead.
Usage Example
Check out some x-callback kungfu by https://twitter.com/hiilppp/ to compose in Drafts, send to Dispatch, attach Dropbox file, send and return.
If you've more x-callback kungfu to share, please email support@dispatchapp.net.
