Sendgrid Dynamic Templates - A more robust templating system is coming soon. I have a python script that pulls customer transaction data from our db and formats it to be used by sendgrid's dynamic templates, but i cannot figure out from the sendgrid docs or any other source how to insert each customer's unique data in their email. I can't find the analog in sendgrid, does it simply not have this capability? The templates don't support arrays as values and there are no conditional or looping controls, so you'd need to predetermine everything prior to building the template and template content. I have a dynamic template in sendgrid, s.t. I was able to implement multiple languages support for my emails using sendgrid dynamic transactional templates. The idea here is that you should create transactional template and design it with the help of handlebars if/else conditional statements. My template (ported over from mailchimp) has conditionals (e.g. To be able to insert html into a sendgrid template you simply have to insert the variable using three curly braces in the template instead of the standard two. This css technique may not be supported in all email clients though, so be sure to build the email in such a way that it can work without this behaviour too. Adding support of english and russian language for your template can look like this: Here are two code examples that send dynamic template emails with and without the helper class (search for dynamic_template_data and dynamictemplatedata). Unfortunately the templates sendgrid provides are pretty minimal at this time. So the full snippet with the mail helper class would be: Attachment ) sendgrid email api w/ inline image:

This Includes Or Excludes Sections Of The Template Based On A Variable.

If you need to include that image in the html of the dynamic template, add attachments.content_id (also in the docs). I can't find the analog in sendgrid, does it simply not have this capability?

I was able to implement multiple languages support for my emails using sendgrid dynamic transactional templates. This isn't part of sendgrid dynamic templates though, it is just built with the html and css that goes into the email (which you can build in sendgrid, it's just not specific to sendgrid).
