What happens if there’s an error sending via SendGrid when triggered by Gmail?

Should an error occur while attempting to send mail via SendGrid from a Gmail trigger, you will receive notifications detailing the issue. There’s also functionality within our platform to retry sending or handle errors systematically depending on your preferences.

Can I automate responses in Gmail using incoming messages from different domains handled by SendGrid?

Yes, you can automate responses by setting up triggers based on incoming emails sent through various domains managed by SendGrid. Specify these conditions within our integration settings so that different domain messages trigger suitable automated responses.

Am I able to log all outgoing mails sent through this integration?
