REST API

Developer portal ›

SecuMailer has a REST API for sending secure emails. Both the GDPR and the NTA 7516 functionality are fully accessible via this API.

The API is documented with OpenAPI specification 3.0.1.

The REST API has webhook functionality, which means that the SecuMailer platform can communicate email events with an HTTPS endpoint of the sender.

SMTP API

The SMTP API is usually the simplest integration option for many backend applications because backend applications often have a provision for an SMTP client on board.

We have successfully integrated for customers with Salesforce, SAP and Centric. We have also successfully integrated with patient file systems such as Medisoft Dossier Manager.

GraphQL API

The SecuMailer platform offers insight into email events. This can be done on the basis of a (push) webhook call (see REST API above) and on the basis of a (pull) GraphQL endpoint.

What is NTA 7516?

The Dutch Technical Agreement (NTA) 7516 is a national standard for the secure exchange of sensitive information via email. Developed with the Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sport (VWS), NEN, VNG, and security technology providers, it sets technical, organizational, and legal requirements to ensure safe and verifiable delivery.

The goal:

  • Minimize the risk of data breaches

  • Verify recipients before delivering sensitive data

  • Provide a legally demonstrable proof of secure delivery

Who needs to comply?

  • Municipalities & public services
  • Youth care institutions
  • Judiciary & legal bodies
  • Safe Home & probation services
  • Government agencies & ministries

The challenges of NTA 7516 compliance

Many organizations struggle to meet NTA 7516 because traditional solutions are outdated or user-unfriendly:

  • Complex workflows: Messaging portals and pick-up links create friction for recipients.

  • Low adoption: Citizens and patients resist cumbersome processes.

  • Repeated authentication requests: Leads to frustration and support calls.

  • Interoperability gaps: Secure email providers often don’t talk to each other.

  • End-to-end encryption for all messages

  • Recipient authentication via two-factor authentication (2FA)

  • Inbox delivery without portals

  • Interoperability between providers

  • Minimal user disruption (max 4 authentication prompts/year)
