apache-airflow-providers-sendgrid

What it is and what it does

This is an Apache Airflow provider package that bridges Airflow workflows to SendGrid's email delivery service. It allows DAG authors to define email-sending tasks that integrate with SendGrid's API, enabling programmatic email delivery as part of Airflow orchestration. The package is maintained as part of the official Apache Airflow ecosystem and provides operators and hooks for SendGrid integration.

The package depends on apache-airflow (>=2.11.0), sendgrid (>=6.12.5), and apache-airflow-providers-common-compat (>=1.8.0). It supports Python 3.10 through 3.14 and is classified as Production/Stable. Installation is straightforward via pip on top of an existing Airflow setup, with no compiled dependencies or system-level requirements beyond Python and Airflow itself.

Use it for:

• Send email notifications when Airflow DAG tasks succeed or fail as part of alerting workflows.
• Trigger transactional emails from scheduled Airflow jobs to end users or internal teams.
• Integrate email delivery into multi-step data pipelines where email confirmation or reporting is a workflow step.
• Automate bulk email campaigns by orchestrating SendGrid sends through Airflow scheduling and retry logic.

Worth the install?

AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying

Integrates SendGrid email delivery into Apache Airflow workflows, enabling DAGs to send emails through SendGrid's API.

Yes, if you run Apache Airflow and need to send emails via SendGrid. The package is actively maintained, carries no known vulnerabilities, has low install friction, and integrates cleanly with Airflow's provider ecosystem. It is only necessary if SendGrid is your chosen email provider; if you use a different service or don't need email delivery from Airflow, it adds no value.

Installing apache-airflow-providers-sendgrid

Before you install

Low install friction as a pure Python wheel. Actively maintained with recent release (68 days ago); the parent Apache Airflow project is well-established with 46490 stars. Requires Apache Airflow >=2.11.0, sendgrid >=6.12.5, and apache-airflow-providers-common-compat >=1.8.0.

Quickstart

pip install apache-airflow-providers-sendgrid

from airflow.providers.sendgrid.operators.sendgrid import SendGridEmailOperator

task = SendGridEmailOperator(
    task_id='send_email',
    sendgrid_conn_id='sendgrid_default',
    from_email='sender@example.com',
    to=['recipient@example.com'],
    subject='Test',
    html_content='<p>Hello</p>'
)

Requires an existing Apache Airflow installation (>=2.11.0) and a configured SendGrid connection in Airflow.

Verify before relying

• Whether the package includes hooks, operators, and sensors for SendGrid beyond basic email sending.
• What SendGrid features (attachments, templates, advanced scheduling) are exposed through the provider.
• Whether authentication uses SendGrid API keys stored in Airflow connections or environment variables.
