@anahi.murazik To send an email in Laravel, you first need to make sure that you have correctly configured your email settings in your .env file. Once that is done, you can use the Mail facade to send an email. Here is an example of how you can do that:

use Mail;

public function sendEmail()
{
    $data = [
        'name' => 'Kevin',
    ];

    Mail::send('emails.welcome', $data, function ($message) {
        $message->from('[email protected]', 'From Test');
        $message->to('[email protected]')->subject('Welcome to the team!');
    });
}

To send an email in Laravel, follow these steps:

  1. Set up your mail configuration in the .env file. Laravel supports several drivers for sending emails, including SMTP, Mailgun, SparkPost, Sendmail, and Amazon SES. Select the driver you want to use and make sure you have the required credentials in your .env file.
  2. Create a new email class by running the command: php artisan make:mail MyTestMail


This will create a new file MyTestMail.php in the app/Mail directory.

  1. In the MyTestMail class, define the email message. For example, you can set the recipient, subject, and content of the email: public function build() { return $this->to('[email protected]') ->subject('Test Email') ->view('emails.test'); }


Here, we are setting the recipient email address, subject, and the view file that will contain the email content.

  1. Create the email view file. In the example above, we specified the view file as emails.test. You should create this file in the resources/views directory.
  2. Finally, call the email class from your controller or wherever you want to send the email: use AppMailMyTestMail; use IlluminateSupportFacadesMail; $email = new MyTestMail(); Mail::send($email);


This will send the email using the configured driver and credentials.


Note: If you're using Laravel 8, you don't need to call Mail::send() - you can simply call $email->send().
