ZeroBounce Connector Setup and Configuration
Connect ZeroBounce to Dataverse for individual and bulk email-address validation.
What the Connector Does
The RapidStart ZeroBounce Connector adds email validation to Microsoft Dataverse. Makers can place the Email Validator code component on an email field, and users can also validate selected records in bulk from a table view.
Before You Begin
- A Microsoft Dataverse environment.
- A ZeroBounce account with an API key and available email-validation credits.
- Permission to configure the add-on and customize model-driven app forms.
- Permission to publish form changes in the target environment.
1. Install the Connector
Open the RapidStart ZeroBounce Connector listing in Microsoft Marketplace, select Get it now, and install it in the target Dataverse environment.
2. Configure the API Key
- Open the ZeroBounce API page and copy your API key.
- In Dataverse, open RapidStart Settings, select Apps & Add-ons, and choose Configure for ZeroBounce.
- Enter the key and select Test. The wizard verifies connectivity and may display the credits available to the account.
- After the test succeeds, select Save. The connector stores the key in its environment-variable configuration.
3. Add Validation to an Email Field
- Open the model-driven form in the Power Apps form designer.
- Select the email field that users should validate.
- Add the Email Validator code component and bind it to the selected email field.
- Save and publish the form.
- Open a record and use Validate beside the email address to confirm the component works.
4. Use Bulk Validation
Open a view for the table you want to validate, select one or more records, and choose Validate Emails from the command bar. Bulk validation uses the first email column visible in the current view, so arrange the view columns before running the command.
Validation uses ZeroBounce credits
Individual and bulk validation requests are sent to your ZeroBounce account and consume credits according to your ZeroBounce plan.
5. Verify the Setup
- Validate one known test address from a configured form.
- Confirm that the validation result is displayed and stored as expected.
- Select a small set of records in a view and run Validate Emails.
- Confirm that the command uses the intended visible email column and completes successfully.
Setup complete
ZeroBounce is ready when the API-key test succeeds and the Email Validator or Validate Emails command works in the intended Dataverse experience.
