Post emailed messages to Slack channel
How this automation works
Post SendGrid email statistics to Slack so your team sees delivery, open, click, bounce, and spam-report totals. This Applet runs when your Webhooks json_event fires, asks SendGrid for aggregated email statistics for the start and end dates you configure, and posts the results to the Slack channel you choose. It's useful for ops, marketing, or support teams who want on-demand visibility into SendGrid performance in Slack. Note: Customize the message to fit your tone.
