Some other services are Mailgun, Mailjet, and Elastic email. Once you obtain the credential, you can head to
/admin/customization/configand update your SMTP configuration.Each services have their own address, port, and other slight variation. Make sure to consult their documentation on those.
I've added Sendgrid API keys, but it doesn't work. I couldn't find any way to make it works properly. Waiting...
Hey! are you using the following configuration? make sure they applied on
/admin/customization/configunder SMTP sectionI'm using Forem selfhost, so I've added Sendgrid Api key and api key id in the setup.yml file. Then when Forem being deployed, I think these configurations need to be set automatically. Am I wrong? Should I put this configuration to the .env file manually?
do you recall which environment variable you set the sendgrid API to? is it
SENDGRID_API_KEYorSMTP_PASSWORD?if you are not sure, you can override it by going to
your-forem.com/admin/customization/configunder the SMTP section.you have to set them up before installation or you can do it after installation.
Easy to set up the SMTP with Sendgrid. I can help. i finally setup my own selfhosted forem on DO.
