SendGrid Email Notifications

Send status page incident, maintenance and information notice notifications via SendGrid.

Configuring StatusPal to send status page email notifications via your SendGrid account gives you the following advantages:

  1. Send status page email notifications to imported subscribers without them having to confirm their email addresses.

  2. Have full control and visibility of email notifications sent, delivered, read, etc.

Follow these simple steps to configure your SendGrid integration in StatusPal status pages:

Obtain your SendGrid API key

To configure your Sendgrid integration in StatusPal, first, you'll need a Sendgrid API key:

  1. Click on Create API key.

  2. Select "Restricted access" and make sure to enable Mail Send access.

  3. Click on Create & view.

  4. Copy your new API key and save it for the next step.

Configure your SendGrid integration in StatusPal

  1. Click on Integrations from the sidebar of your status page's admin dashboard.

  2. Click on Sendgrid from the list of integrations.

  3. Enter the SendGrid API key that you copied from the step above.

  4. Enter the email address to be used as the "From" address when sending email notifications. Make sure it matches with the sending domain you have configured in SendGrid.
