SendGrid

SendGrid (opens new window) enables you to deliver emails for your business. You can use SendGrid to send marketing emails, automated messages, and transactional emails, ensuring high deliverability and effective customer engagement.

API version

SendGrid's connector uses the Web API v3 for integration with Workato. For more information, see SendGrid's API documentation (opens new window).

Prerequisites

Ensure that your API key has the correct permissions before you connect to SendGrid in Workato:

1

Go to Settings > API Keys in your SendGrid account.

2

Click Create API Key.

3

Select Restricted Access under API Key Permissions and set Mail Send to Full Access.

VERIFY ACCESS

If a 403 error occurs after you assign permissions, switch the API key to Full Access to test whether missing permissions cause the issue. Revert to Restricted access with only the required scopes after verification to maintain security best practices.

Assign any additional required scopes based on your application's needs.

5

Use this API key in your Workato connection setup.
