Hi,

I’m trying to use Sendgrid email service and keep getting this error in the logs

Job exception: 535 Authentication failed: Bad username / password

I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong, here’s how my configuration looks like

 DISCOURSE_SMTP_ADDRESS: smtp.sendgrid.net
 DISCOURSE_SMTP_PORT: 587
 DISCOURSE_SMTP_USER_NAME: apiKey
 DISCOURSE_SMTP_PASSWORD: 'SG.xxxx.xxxxxx.xxxx'

I’ve also tried to use port 2525 on the suggestion of Fresh install. Works. Sendgrid not sending emails , but that didn’t work either.

I’m able to establish a connection using telnet.

Can someone please help? Any idea what I could be doing wrong?

From the same server that your Discourse is on?

Apologies if this is a silly question but is your SendGrid username actually: apiKey

:thinking:

I only ask, as it’s an unusual choice of account name…

3

Yes

No, I don’t think there’s a concept of username in sendgrid, I just followed the documentation here discourse/docs/INSTALL-email.md at main · discourse/discourse · GitHub

I might be wrong also, but I don’t see any username info in my sendgrid account.

They use different terminology but you’re still connecting to what is essentially a standard SMTP server, which will require authentication.

Go to the Teammates section - https://app.sendgrid.com/settings/teammates

In there you will see the account details that are able to send email:

The value in the “Username” column is what you need to enter in the Discourse setting DISCOURSE_SMTP_USER_NAME

So if the “Username” was SK2019 then you’d have something like:

DISCOURSE_SMTP_ADDRESS: smtp.sendgrid.net
DISCOURSE_SMTP_PORT: 587
DISCOURSE_SMTP_USER_NAME: SK2019
DISCOURSE_SMTP_PASSWORD: 'xxxx.xxxxxx.xxxx'

I tried that but didn’t work. The Sendgrid docs mention to use apiKey as username, but that doesn’t seem to be working.

Maybe I should reach out to the sendgrid team and seek their help.

Did you use apiKey when using telnet?

7

Yes, I followed instructions at How to Send an SMTP Email | SendGrid Documentation and they worked! Not sure what am I missing in discourse configuration.

8

Do the four lines in your config file look like mine (above)?

With the correct DISCOURSE_SMTP_USER_NAME that matches the one displayed in your Teammates page on SendGrid?

9

Yes, the username is the one displayed in the the Teammates page, the password is the key I generated (telnet works using this key), and other two fields are exactly the same.

May I know what version of discourse are you using, I’m using beta, I suspect that could be the issue.

Anyways, I’m planning to switching to mailgun, I tried it today, and it works seamlessly (though it’s expensive, but have no other options atm)

Apenas para constar @Satwik_Kansal, nosso nome de usuário da API do Sendgrid é “apikey” — não “apiKey”. Está funcionando perfeitamente.

11

Estou com o mesmo problema. Qual é o resumo aqui? Usar “apikey” (não está funcionando) ou adicionar um colega de equipe (está vazio)?

12

Para os registros, a documentação torna isso bastante confuso e não é a primeira vez que me vejo pesquisando exatamente esse problema no Google tentando encontrar a solução.

Atualmente, a documentação diz:

SendGrid — 40 mil e-mails em um período de teste de 30 dias

Endereço do servidor SMTP? smtp.sendgrid.net
Nome de usuário SMTP?      apikey
Senha SMTP?       [Chave de API do SendGrid]

EDIT: O que acho que está confundindo as pessoas é que elas (como eu) acham que “apikey” significa que devem colocar sua chave de API aqui, mas, na verdade, deve ser deixado como está!

Maluco, né?

Imagino que isso tenha confundido 99% das pessoas que estão tentando :confused:
