HTML2Sendgrid

A CLI command to publish HTML files as Dynamic Templates on Sendgrid.

WTF

In order to automatically publish some HTML templates to SendGrid you can use this script to:

• scan for existing templates
• match any existing template by name
• create a new template if missing
• rotate template versions (as they are limited to 300 per account)
• create a new version and set it active

You just need to specify the sendgrid api key as an environment variable named SENDGRID_API_KEY then run the script as per instruction here below.

Usage

export SENDGRID_API_KEY=YOUR_API_KEY
npm start <HTML_DIR>

if you want to upload also some test variables

export SENDGRID_API_KEY=YOUR_API_KEY
npm start <HTML_DIR> <VARIABLES.JSON>

Max version per template

export MAX_VERSION_PER_TEMPLATE=5

If you set this variable the module will automatically rotate the versions of the template by keeping the last N versions.

This is useful because Sendgrid has a limit of 300 versions per account.

If you have multiple template within the same account you might want to limit how many versions of a template you want to keep in order to not hit this limit.
