# SendGrid Integration
## What it is
A simply great integration to connect your SendGrid account to your Botpress Bot. Send emails directly from your bot.
## How it works
You can use the Send Email action send emails to one or more recipients. It requires the recipient's email address, sender's email address, subject, and content.
To send to a single email address you can provide a single email string.
To send to multiple email addresses at once you must provide a stringified array.
`Example: workflow.to = JSON.stringify(['[email protected]', '[email protected]'])`
