This library allows you to quickly and easily send emails through SendGrid using Python.
If you upgrade to version 1.2.x, the add_to method behaves differently. In the past this method defaulted to using the SMTPAPI header. Now you must explicitly call the smtpapi.add_to method. More on the SMTPAPI section.

message=sendgrid.Mail()
message.add_to('John Doe <john@email.com>')
message.set_subject('Example')

#ormessage=sendgrid.Mail(to='john@email.com', subject='Example', html='Body', text='Body', from_email='doe@email.com')
status, msg=sg.send(message)By default, .send method returns a tuple (http_status_code, message),
however you can pass raise_errors=True to SendGridClient constructor,
then .send method will raise SendGridClientError for 4xx errors,
and SendGridServerError for 5xx errors.

try:
sg.send(message)
exceptSendGridClientError:
...
exceptSendGridServerError:
...This behavior is going to be default from version 2.0.0. You are
encouraged to set raise_errors to True for forwards compatibility.
SendGridError is a base-class for all SendGrid-related exceptions.
To begin using this library create a new instance of SendGridClient with your SendGrid credentials or a SendGrid API Key. API Key is the preferred method. API Keys are in beta. To configure API keys, visit https://app.sendgrid.com/settings/api_keys.

message.add_attachment_stream('filename', 'somerandomcontentyouwant')

message.add_attachment('image.png', open('./image.png', 'rb'))
message.add_content_id('image.png', 'ID_IN_HTML')
message.set_html('<html><body>TEXT BEFORE IMAGE<img src="cid:ID_IN_HTML"></img>AFTER IMAGE</body></html>')SendGrid's X-SMTPAPI
If you wish to use the X-SMTPAPI on your own app, you can use the SMTPAPI Python library.
There are implementations for setter methods too.
