Am I right in thinking that the SendGrid Plugin doesn’t support the dynamic transactional templates.
I tested and it works fine with the legacy transactional templates but as soon as you use a dynamic template ID you get an error message back from SendGrid.
Anyone else experienced this?

Hey @simon,
The Send emails with SendGrid plugin will soon also support SendGrid’s new transactional emails. 
Great news thanks
Just FYI for anyone using dynamic Transactional emails with the Send Emails with Sendgrid plugin. They are using handlebars, so %VAR1% becomes {{VAR1}} in your templates. The plugin page directions are incorrect for using this type of template.

Hey @grottofilms,
There now is field-level documentation for the Send emails with SendGrid plugin which include examples and tips, such as the Template ID field requiring template prefixed with ‘d-’ and so on. We’ve already updated the documentation that’ll come bundled in the next update.
Wish I had noticed that sooner…Thanks!
Is there a way to include attachments with the latest updates? I don’t see it as an option. I see that API3 has the ability…eg:
'{
“attachments”: [
{
“content”: “[BASE64 encoded content block here]”,
“type”: “jpg”,
“name”: “example_file”,
“filename”: “example_file.jpg”,
“disposition”: “inline”,
“content_id”: “[THE CONTENT ID OF YOUR FILE]”
}
]
}

Hey @grottofilms,
Today’s Version 5.2 update is coming with support for attachments, among other things.
Hey, thanks for the update. I followed through on adding attachments via instructions but I just get a workflow error. It’s in BASE64, etc.
Workflow error - Plugin action SendGrid - Send email error:
Is there a place I need to add this on the dynamic template? Sends fine if i remove the attachment. Thanks!
My javascript is not so good but shouldn’t there be an attachments under options.json or just options if I read the API docs correctly?
'var options = {
method: ‘POST’,
uri: ‘https://api.sendgrid.com/v3/mail/send’,
headers: {
Authorization: 'Bearer ’ + bearerKey
},
json: {
subject: properties.subject,
template_id: properties.template_id.trim(),
from: {
name: properties.from_name,
email: properties.from_email_address
},
personalizations: [],
content: [{
type: “text/html”,
value: “-”
}],
tracking_settings: {
click_tracking: {
enable: properties.clicktracking
},
open_tracking: {
enable: properties.opentracking
}
}
}
}
’
