AZURE How to Send Email Using SendGrid with Azure

hello everyone welcome in this quick tutorial I'm just gonna walk through the microscope document for sending an email using the same grid so this is a really good feature if you want to send reliable transaction emails every this service is scalable you can get real-time analytics and it's got a very flexible API and that would that allows very easy integration so if you look over here there is some common use cases so it can automatically send receipts or purchase confirmation to customers administering distribution distribution lists for sending customers monthly flyers and promotions collecting real-time metrics for things like blog email and customer engagement forwarding customer enquiries or even processing incoming emails okay you can go to the same grid comm for more information there is a shisha blackberry force in grade that's available under the github repo okay we're gonna create the same grid account we're actually not gonna use any console application to taste that email how you actually use this that you can do it and instructions are in here but in this one I'm just gonna focus on what you need to do on the as your side to get the same grade instance ready so as your customers can unlock twenty five thousand three emails each month can you believe that this twenty five thousand three monthly emails will give you access to advanced reporting and analytics all api's so let's go to our azure portal and let's search for same grid same grid account so let's go there let's see if we have any need this though sure the moment I have more simple deck on right now so what you need to do you need to create if you look at this this is kind of this giving us a little bit different interface so let's say if I have that I can have a level anymore or Microsoft has changed looks like Microsoft has changed most like on the marketplace we have a same grade so let's click on that one as well just to make sure the boot check that this is a simple tank this is a same grade account I'm just gonna start soon before no time and in the documentation they're saying in that your portal create a resource so let's do exactly that and see if I get a different icon I just want to be another person yeah so this is from the marketplace so this is let's use that one which is now it's matching up as your customers review from 4,000 emails per month free with paid packages starting nine ninety five point one so let's get that one so let's create create single account so now we are back and we are matching the directions so we're gonna send we're gonna create a name of the account so we can say say for my account you know create a new resource group I'm gonna call Basu st. grade Archie is the resource code that I'm gonna cruise name account details is send grid okay so that's all I needed vasooli something that only I know okay so it got the passwords pricing tier if you click on it you will be able to see what are the different kind of pricing tiers above the rule we have free where you have a email per month 25,000 advanced reporting is available custom integration above the pool advanced delivery available what's not available is your dedicated IP address sub user management but you also have a 24/7 support available look at that so that's for that purpose this free plan is okay so I'm just going to get out of here keep what we have here you need to provide some contact information so just put some of that stuff and put some information that's relevant to you and once that's done awkward about tags right now so I can just create this same critical and let's go back so we have done we have done that we have done that in turn name to identify the same great service so we have all done that we have done all of that we looked at the pricing tier and if you have promotional code you can actually also use your promotional code so this is let's see what we have right here so it's right now is creating the same bit account which is a couple thing that we didn't have to do from here is like is like choose your pricing theory we had a different little bit different looking window that gave us a little bit different options for us so once this is done well as soon when it's going on the deployment we can also do go back home create a resource and we can create same grid another time I'm just you just want to look at if we missed and that force is already done so from here the interface is looks a little bit different than when probably when Microsoft developed this labs when you click on that resource group new and then you have the pricing tier it looks like a little bit different this time and when over here free pricing tier you can click on this plan and this display is is different okay so that's the only thing that's different but want to be created is already done so this go to resource and let's see what how can you use this so first of all the resources deployed in this resource group that we created is a free pricing tier deployed in the East EOS which is my favorite deployment location and then then you have some guidance how to use the same grid using Java not JSP HP and dotnet put it to work you have some more example and documentation they're all available of in this area let's go over here so once that's done as I said it's gonna show up in here and click on click on the manage button to initiate the e-mail verification process so let's see if there's a manage button have a look to us yeah this is the manage button so if you click on it the email that you have provided it will start a verification process for this okay so let's come back over here if you don't verify you can only send up 200 emails per day until you have verified your account so do it when you get a chance and if you ever need to modify your subscription to see the same recontact setting you can also do it from the from the dashboard so you can come over here and looks like overview this should have been a contact in some place that's over here quanto sure great so it's NCOs research shook and all that and then you gotta go to all settings to get them this I also don't see the but I know I see the one for chaining password and resetting the password I don't see any link that link that they're showing so maybe on the properties know properties also not showing the contact details so overview I guess you probably have to do this maybe then it's gonna show up okay so for here if you do the with user authentication and actually yeah so it's going to say hey send the confirmation email I can see in the confirmation confirmation you know the sending ok check checking email so I can go to my email and I'm gonna pause the video okay I just confirmed the email from my mailbox so now it has given me this new interface from the same VidCon where you know my recent activity mail activity is not showing up you can go this is what the dashboard view I can look at API design library stats and all kinds of other features and now available to me after I have done my email validation all right so come over here let's see anything else that we need in the same grid dashboard select setting and an API keys so yes if you are developing an application you need those API keys so where are my keys see over here here select settings and then API keys on your same great dashboard okay so in this dashboard you gotta go to settings and then API keys so if you click on that it should give you access to the API key and the user name and here actually you don't have anything you would need to create an API key and once you have the key available to you and then you can use the key the key name and then let's see let's create that name for CP we cannot show you that again so this is the password or the API key so make sure to copy that one and because it's not gonna show you again then you say just done done copy then done okay I actually had to cop click on it to copy it so now you have the PID key ideas this and API key is what we have just copied so now we can use this same great API key to build our application and send emails let's go back so we have done all that now this is the part that I'm not gonna do today but if you want to do a little bit further you can open up a visual studio environment ID and from that one what you need to do you need to make sure that you had the same grade module installed and once you had that installed pretty much you be calling the same grade module library whatever you say and we already have some some sample code that you can use and in the sample code you'll be able to send emails and verify that simpler is able to send the emails that that you want alright so that's all I wanted to cover in this video it's a really simple way to create a send grid instance and use it for your applications thank you for watching the video
