How this automation works

Send a SendGrid contact's details to Notifications when you press the Button. When the Button widget fires, the Applet looks up the SendGrid contact for the email you configure and sends a rich notification via Notifications. Use it to get instant contact info on your device—handy for sales, events, or quick follow-ups. Note: Install the IFTTT app on the device(s) where you want to receive notifications.
