Please review our guide on how to migrate from v2 to v3.
Here is the last working version with v2 support.
Using rubygems:
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'sendgrid-ruby', '1.1.6'
And then execute:
bundle
Or install it yourself using:
gem install sendgrid-ruby -v 1.1.6
Download:
Click the "Clone or download" green button in GitHub and choose download.
Here are some cURL examples for common use cases.
To read the error message returned by SendGrid's API:
begin
response = sg.client.mail._("send").post(request_body: mail.to_json)
rescue Exception => e
puts e.message
end
We follow the MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH versioning scheme as described by SemVer.org. Therefore, we recommend that you always pin (or vendor) the particular version you are working with to your code and never auto-update to the latest version. Especially when there is a MAJOR point release, since that is guarenteed to be a breaking change. Changes are documented in the CHANGELOG and releases section.
All of our examples assume you are using environment variables to hold your SendGrid API key.
If you choose to add your SendGrid API key directly (not recommended):
sg = SendGrid::API.new(api_key: ENV['SENDGRID_API_KEY'])
becomes
sg = SendGrid::API.new(api_key: 'SENDGRID_API_KEY')
In the first case SENDGRID_API_KEY is in reference to the name of the environment variable, while the second case references the actual SendGrid API Key.
We upload this library to RubyGems whenever we make a release. This allows you to use RubyGems for easy installation.
In most cases we recommend you download the latest version of the library, but if you need a different version, please use:
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'sendgrid-ruby', 'X.X.X'
And then execute:
bundle
Or install it yourself using:
gem install sendgrid-ruby -v X.X.X
