Configuring Mailgun Events

Upon successful installation you will be able to choose which events to track and how many results you would like to request from Mailgun.

Limit Options
From the plugin settings page you are able to choose from a list of predefined values, but you can set your own value by overriding the plugin settings.
Overriding Plugin Settings
If you create a config file in your config folder called mailgun-events.php, you can override the plugin’s settings in the Control Panel. Since that config file is fully multi-environment aware, this is a handy way to have different settings across multiple environments.
Here’s what that config file might look like along with a list of all of the possible values you can override.

return [
'eventTypes' => ['delivered', 'failed'],
'limit' => 50,
