---------------------- Based on the error message you've provided, it appears you're encountering a "Forbidden" error (HTTP 403) when trying to send an email using SendGrid in your Wasp application. This type of error usually indicates an authentication or authorization issue. Here are a few potential reasons and solutions: 1. API Key: Make sure you've correctly set up your SendGrid API key in the .env.server file as described in the Wasp documentation on using the SendGrid provider. Double-check that the API key is correct and has the necessary permissions to send emails. 2. Sender Email Verification: SendGrid requires that you verify the email address you're sending from. Ensure that the email address you're using as the sender is verified in your SendGrid account. 3. SendGrid Account Status: Check if your SendGrid account is in good standing and doesn't have any restrictions or limitations. 4. Local Development: If you're testing locally, be aware that SendGrid may have restrictions on sending from localhost. As mentioned in a Discord support thread, SendGrid often requires a URL (not localhost) and may not accept API calls from a development environment. For local testing, you might want to consider using the Dummy provider as suggested in the same Discord thread:

app Example {
  ...
  emailSender: {
    provider: Dummy,
  }
}

app Example {
  ...
  emailSender: {
    provider: Dummy,
  }
}

This allows you to test the app functionality without actually sending emails. If you've verified all of the above and are still encountering issues, you may need to contact SendGrid support for further assistance, as the error could be related to your specific account or setup. Remember to always use environment variables for sensitive information like API keys, and never commit these directly to your code repository. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ---------------------- Sorry @wbjb, I seem to be having a bit of trouble. Don't worry though, I've pinged my support and they will try to fix me up! :technologist: Perhaps try again in 15mins?

@kapa.ai ahh im still in developemtn. that makes sense. I was trying to test the flow before deploying. Ill check it after. Thnaks

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- You're welcome! I'm glad I could help clarify the situation for you. Since you're still in the development phase, using the Dummy provider is indeed a great option for testing your email functionality without actually sending real emails. As mentioned in the Wasp documentation on email providers, you can easily set up the Dummy provider in your main.wasp file like this:

app Example {
  ...
  emailSender: {
    provider: Dummy,
  }
}

app Example {
  ...
  emailSender: {
    provider: Dummy,
  }
}

This will allow you to test your email flow locally without the need for a real email service. The Dummy provider will simply log the email content to the console, which can be very helpful for debugging and development. Just remember that the Dummy provider is not suitable for production use. When you're ready to deploy your application, you'll need to switch back to a real email provider like SendGrid. Good luck with your development, and feel free to ask if you have any more questions about Wasp's email functionality! ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ---------------------- Sorry @wbjb, I seem to be having a bit of trouble.
