Introduction
This guide outlines how to integrate SendGrid, a cloud-based email delivery service, with SubscriptionFlow, a subscription management platform. The integration will allow you to send emails with your custom email identity i.e. noreply@subscriptionflow.com
Prerequisites:
- A SubscriptionFlow account with admin privileges.
- A SendGrid account. (If you don’t have one, sign up at SendGrid)
- API key from SendGrid.
Step 1: Generate SendGrid API Key
- Log into your SendGrid account.
- Navigate to Settings > API Keys in the sidebar.
Click on Create API Key.
Name the API key (e.g., "SubscriptionFlow Integration") and assign it full access permissions.
Copy the API key and store it securely, as it will only be displayed once.
Step 2: Configure Single Sender Authentication in SendGrid
Log into your SendGrid account.
Click on the link https://app.sendgrid.com/settings/sender_auth/senders
Click on the Verify a Single Sender
Create a new sender in SendGrid

Step 4: Configure SendGrid in SubscriptionFlow
Log into your SubscriptionFlow dashboard.
