The `sendgrid` notification platform sends email notifications via [SendGrid](https://sendgrid.com/), a proven cloud-based email platform.
|
|
|
|
## {% linkable_title Setup %}
|
|
|
|
You need an [API key](https://app.sendgrid.com/settings/api_keys) from SendGrid.
|
|
|
|
## {% linkable_title Configuration %}
|
|
|
|
To enable notification emails via SendGrid in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
