backupSendgridTemplates VS sendgrid-python

Sendgrid provides wrappers for their APIs for multiple languages: python, nodejs, java, etc. Using the 2 above endpoints you can easily create a custom solution, but if you want something that it's already available to downloads and save your templates you can have a look at my package: backup-sendgrid-templates.

I use SendGrid with its dynamic templates via its Python library.

Install the SendGrid python library Finally you can install the python library. The documentation gives you some simple examples on how to send your first emails. I did not need to dig much further, those are great. This project uses the "Without Mail Helper Class" example, that I implemented in my contact_secret_santa() class method.

FWIW the reason I'm doing this is because I'm inserting some text into a message that will be sent as email. The message can either be inserted as plain text or converted to html. I'm trying to apply the HtmlContent from sendgrid.

You're talking about this, right? Where's the part that changes the protocol used? https://github.com/sendgrid/sendgrid-python/blob/main/use_cases/kitchen_sink.md

To install the sendgrid package on your machine, refer to SendGrid's GitHub installation guide or directly install via pip install sendgrid.

You can use sendgrid. They have a decent python library and they have a free plan as well. The library is pretty straight forward to setup.
