page SendGrid Instructions on how to add email notifications via SendGrid to Home Assistant. 2016-02-27 18:00 true false true true sendgrid.png Notifications

The sendgrid notification platform sends email notifications via SendGrid, a proven cloud-based email platform.

To enable notification emails via SendGrid in your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
notify:
  - name: NOTIFIER_NAME
    platform: sendgrid
    api_key: YOUR_API_KEY
    sender: SENDER_EMAIL_ADDRESS
    recipient: YOUR_RECIPIENT

Configuration variables:

  • name (Optional): Setting the optional parameter name allows multiple notifiers to be created. The default value is notify. The notifier will bind to the service notify.NOTIFIER_NAME.
  • api_key (Required): SendGrid API key - https://app.sendgrid.com/settings/api_keys
  • sender (Required): E-mail address of the sender.
  • recipient (Required): Recipient of the notification.

To use notifications, please see the getting started with automation page.
