Track waitlist signups in Email
See who joins the waitlist as it happens — with their position and where they came from — so launch outreach starts the day they sign up, not after the next export.

the event
You emit waitlist.joined with this shape. The TypeScript SDK keeps the call type-safe, and the event is stored whole — so every field below is available to the pipeline by name.
- emailstring
- positionnumberplace in line
- referrerstringwhere they came from
- created_atstringISO 8601
emit it
From your code with the TypeScript SDK — or any language over the REST endpoint and signed webhook ingress.
import { ingest } from "@ingestlayer/sdk";
await ingest("waitlist.joined", {
email: form.email,
position: list.length + 1,
referrer: req.headers.referer,
}, {
idempotencyKey: form.email, // one slot per email
});route it to Email
Send a transactional email to one or more recipients, addressable from event fields.
- 01
set the recipient
Enter a fixed address, or reference an event field like $event.payload.email to route per event.
- 02
write subject and body
Both accept $event.* templates. The body renders as plain text with an optional summary table of the payload.
- 03
confirm the sender
Mail goes out from mail@notify.ingestlayer.com with SPF and DKIM aligned. Set a reply-to if you want responses to reach you.

notes
- Outbound email is metered against a monthly quota that scales with your plan; over-quota sends are deferred, not dropped.
- Sending from a fixed ingestlayer domain keeps deliverability high, but the From address is not your own domain.
- Recipient addresses pulled from event fields are validated at send time; a malformed address dead-letters that delivery.
questions
- Can I treat work emails differently?
- Yes. enrich.person resolves the email to a company, then a filter or a branch routes business signups somewhere louder than personal ones.
- How do I stop duplicate entries?
- Pass the email as idempotencyKey; the gate enforces uniqueness, so a double-submit counts once and keeps positions honest.
- Can I keep a full copy of the list?
- Fan out: send the alert to a chat channel and the same event to Postgres, so the canonical list lives in your own database.
