Sendgrid.helpers.mail

sendgrid.helpers.mail is a Python library that provides a set of helper functions for working with email messages using the SendGrid API.

Here are some of the key features and functions provided by sendgrid.helpers.mail:

  1. Mail: This is the main class for creating email messages. It provides methods for setting the from address, to address, subject, and body of the email.
  2. Content: This class provides methods for setting the content of the email, including the text and HTML versions.
  3. Attachment: This class provides methods for adding attachments to the email.
  4. Personalization: This class provides methods for personalizing the email content using placeholders and dynamic values.
  5. Tracking: This class provides methods for tracking the email campaign, including tracking clicks, opens, and conversions.

Here is an example of how you might use sendgrid.helpers.mail to send an email:

from sendgrid import SendGridClient
from sendgrid.helpers.mail import Mail, Content, Attachment

sg = SendGridClient('your_sendgrid_api_key')

mail = Mail(
    from_email='[email protected]',
    to_email='[email protected]',
    subject='Hello from SendGrid!',
    html_content=Content('text/html', 'Hello from SendGrid!'),
)

attachment = Attachment()
attachment.set_file('path/to/attachment.txt')
attachment.set_filename('attachment.txt')
attachment.set_type('text/plain')
attachment.set_disposition('attachment')

mail.add_attachment(attachment)

sg.send(mail)

This code creates a new email message using the Mail class, sets the from and to addresses, subject, and HTML content, and adds an attachment using the Attachment class. Finally, it sends the email using the SendGridClient class.

Note that you will need to replace your_sendgrid_api_key with your actual SendGrid API key, and [email protected] and [email protected] with the actual email addresses you want to use.
