Motivation

Mailtrap now serves a conventions-compliant templates API at /api/templates (and /api/accounts/{account_id}/templates): every response is wrapped in a data envelope, the list is paginated with token / per_page, and write bodies are flat. The existing /api/email_templates surface keeps its published shape and stays the stable way to manage templates.

This adds the new surface as a sibling resource rather than widening the existing one, because widening would change every return type for current callers. The old surface is not marked obsolete yet: the new endpoints are experimental, and EmailTemplates().GetAll() returns every template while Templates().GetAll() returns one page. It can be marked obsolete when /api/templates leaves experimental.

Changes

  • Add account.Templates() / account.Template(id) for /api/accounts/{id}/templates: GetAll(TemplateListFilter { Token, PerPage }) returns TemplateList (Data + Pagination), GetDetails/Create/Update return Template, Delete expects 204; flat CreateTemplateRequest / UpdateTemplateRequest with FluentValidation
    • Pagination is the existing Mailtrap.Core.Models.Pagination
  • Templates(), Template(id) and both new interfaces are documented as experimental; EmailTemplates() points at Templates() in its remarks (no [Obsolete])
  • Template.BodyText / BodyHtml are string?, because the API returns null for a body the template has none of
  • Add examples/Mailtrap.Example.Templates and README rows

How to test

You'll need an account API token and the account id.

  • List — client.Account(id).Templates().GetAll(new TemplateListFilter { PerPage = 1 }) returns one item in Data and Pagination.NextToken when more exist; PerPage = 1, Token = 2 returns the next page
  • Create / get / update / delete — Create(new CreateTemplateRequest { Name, Subject, Category, BodyHtml }) returns a Template with Id; Template(id).GetDetails(), Update(new UpdateTemplateRequest { Subject }) and Delete() follow; GetDetails after delete throws HttpRequestFailedException (404)
  • Validation — a 256-character Name throws RequestValidationException before any request
  • Old surface — account.EmailTemplates() compiles without CS0618 and behaves as before

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added experimental template management for listing and paginating templates, creating them, viewing details, updating content, and deleting templates.
    • Added an example demonstrating template management.
  • Changes
    • Marked the existing Email Templates management interface as deprecated in favor of the new Templates interface.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds a paginated templates API with models, validation, and operations for listing, creating, retrieving, updating, and deleting templates. It marks the existing email-template accessors obsolete and adds a console example with solution and README entries.

Changes

Template API

Layer / File(s) Summary
Template contracts and validation
src/Mailtrap.Abstractions/Templates/*, src/Mailtrap.Abstractions/Accounts/IAccountResource.cs
Adds template models, filters, request records, interfaces, and validators. Create requests require non-empty name, category, and subject fields; update fields are optional. Both validators apply the documented length limits. The existing email-template accessors are marked obsolete.
Account accessors and template operations
src/Mailtrap/Accounts/AccountResource.cs, src/Mailtrap/Templates/*, src/Mailtrap/Core/Constants/UrlSegments.cs
Adds account accessors for template collections and individual templates. The collection resource supports filtered listing and creation. The single-template resource supports retrieval, update, and deletion.
Template behavior tests
tests/Mailtrap.UnitTests/Templates/*, tests/Mailtrap.IntegrationTests/Templates/*, tests/Mailtrap.*Tests/Accounts/*, tests/Mailtrap.*Tests/GlobalUsings.cs, tests/Mailtrap.*Tests/TestConstants/*
Adds unit and integration coverage for resource construction, serialization, validation, HTTP operations, filtering, and response values. Adds response fixtures and URL constants. Existing email-template tests suppress obsolete-API warnings.
Templates example
examples/Mailtrap.Example.Templates/*, examples/Mailtrap.Example.EmailTemplates/Program.cs, Mailtrap.sln, README.md
Adds a console example that lists templates, creates one if the page is empty, retrieves its details, updates it, and deletes it. Registers the project in the solution and README, and suppresses obsolete-API warnings in the existing example.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 4dd8f

The new templates API looks ready, but the bundled example can modify and delete a real template that already exists in the user's account. Change the example to work only on a template it creates before merging. Also confirm that the in-app code samples still match.

- New `account.Templates()` / `account.Template(id)` are account-scoped and return
  `TemplateList` (data plus page-token pagination) for list; single results are unwrapped
  from the `data` envelope, and create/update bodies are sent flat.
- Update requests are all-optional and only serialize the properties that are set.
- The EmailTemplates resources, their request records and the `EmailTemplates()` /
  `EmailTemplate(id)` account methods stay working but are marked `[Obsolete]`.
- Adds the `Mailtrap.Example.Templates` example and marks the Email Templates example
  as deprecated in the README.

Confirm whether the in-app Templates example matches this sample.

The new public example uses accountResource.Templates() to list, create, retrieve, update, and delete templates. Confirm that the equivalent in-app examples remain accurate, and update them if needed.

- Remove [Obsolete] from EmailTemplates() and EmailTemplate(id), the
  CS0618 suppressions, and the README label. A warnings-as-errors build
  would fail on the upgrade alone, and the public spec still calls
  /api/email_templates the stable surface.
- Mark Templates(), Template(id) and ITemplateResource as experimental,
  and point to Templates() from EmailTemplates().
- Declare Template.BodyText and BodyHtml as string?, because the API
  returns null for a body the template was created without.

Looks good. Routes, response envelopes, write bodies, the 204 on delete and the validation limits all match the spec. I left a few comments inline; none of them block the merge.
