Sendgrid Integration w/ Gravity Forms?

  1. I haven't researched into this too much, but haven't especially found anything inspiring or informative. Thoughts, suggestions, resources?

    Best.

  2. Gravity Forms uses the wp_mail() function. WP Mail SMTP replaces the wp_mail() function with your own SMTP server settings. You can use the Sendgrid SMTP settings in the WP Mail SMTP and send mail through Sendgrid.

    Does that work for you? Or did I pick the wrong Sendgrid?

  3. We don't currently have an Add-On for SendGrid. We are planning Add-Ons for services like PostMark and we can look at SendGrid once we do. It's certainly possible to do from an integration standpoint as we will be using existing hooks when we create our official Add-Ons for these services.

    Gravity Charge and other add-ons have taken priority currently. I will send the team a note that someone else has asked about it though.

  6. I have WP Mail SMTP installed so that I can use SendGrid and I wasn't getting the GravityForms notifications at all. If I manually sent them to an alternate address they worked (via Forms > Entries > View > Resend Notifications - override address) but they would never work after a visitor submitted the form.

    So I looked at the SendGrid bounce reports and noticed that all of my admin@domain.com email addresses were bouncing. I found that if I changed the administrator email address (Dashboard > Settings > General) from admin@domain.com to greg@domain.com that GravityForms and SendGrid both worked.

    Not sure why the admin accounts were bouncing but thought I would pass it on in case anyone else has the same problem.

    Thanks for the update. Hopefully it helps others as they try to deal with sendmail issues.
