Introduction

You can set up Results Emails to send each user a personalised preezie Results Email to their inbox.

In order to set this up, we need the authority to send emails via an email address associated with your company. We do this in partnership with SendGrid.

Set up a SendGrid API Key for Results Emails

In order to create a SendGrid API Key, follow the steps below.

  1. Create a SendGrid Account
    If you don’t have a SendGrid account already, go to SendGrid and create an account. If you have an account, log into your Dashboard.

  2. Set up Sender Authentication
    If you have created a new SendGrid account, you will need to set up Sender Authentication in order to continue.

    In your SendGrid account, go to Settings → Sender Authentication and complete either Domain Authentication or Single Sender Verification.
