# How to use Postmark API with MailPlugger in Ruby on Rails
**Please note that these examples were not tested, but I believe it should work.**
Let's use mailer method which was defined [here](https://github.com/MailToolbox/mail_plugger/blob/main/docs/usage_in_ruby_on_rails.md#api).
Add `postmark` gem to the `Gemfile`.
```ruby
gem 'postmark'
```
Then run `bundle install` command to deploy the gem.
Change the API and `MailPlugger.plug_in` method in `config/initializers/mail_plugger.rb`.
```ruby
class PostmarkApiClient
def initialize(options = {})
@settings = { token: ENV['POSTMARK_TOKEN'] }
@options = options
end
def deliver
Postmark::ApiClient.new(@settings[:token]).deliver(generate_mail_hash)
end
private
def generate_mail_hash
{
from: @options[:from].first,
to: @options[:to],
subject: @options[:subject],
text_body: @options[:text_part],
html_body: @options[:html_part],
tag: @options[:tag]
}
end
end
MailPlugger.plug_in('postmark') do |api|
api.client = PostmarkApiClient
api.delivery_options = %i[from to subject text_part html_part tag]
api.delivery_settings = { return_response: true }
end
```
Then modify the mailer method a little bit.
```ruby
class TestMailer < ApplicationMailer
default from: 'from@example.com'
def send_test
mail subject: 'Test email', to: 'to@example.com', delivery_system: 'postmark', tag: 'send_test'
end
end
```
