# wait_for_matching_email

Array<EmailPreview> wait_for_matching_email(match_options, opts)

Wait or return list of emails that match simple matching patterns

Perform a search of emails in an inbox with the given patterns. If results match expected count then return or else retry the search until results are found or timeout is reached. Match options allow simple CONTAINS or EQUALS filtering on SUBJECT, TO, BCC, CC, and FROM. See the MatchOptions object for options. An example payload is { matches: [{field: 'SUBJECT',should:'CONTAIN',value:'needle'}] }. You can use an array of matches and they will be applied sequentially to filter out emails. If you want to perform matches and extractions of content using Regex patterns see the EmailController getEmailContentMatch method.

# Example

# load the gem
require 'mailslurp_client'
# setup authorization
MailSlurpClient.configure do |config|
  # Configure API key authorization: API_KEY
