Setup guide (opens in a new tab)Recurly knows when a subscription is about to renew, who is past due and what sits on each account; SendGrid holds the contacts and the templates you email them with. Joining them lets renewal notices, payment reminders and contact updates come out of billing facts, and lets bounces and unsubscribes in SendGrid feed back into the matching Recurly account.

Questions
Recurly and SendGrid, answered
What can start a run between Recurly and SendGrid?
On the Recurly side, a run starts before a subscription renews. On the SendGrid side, it can start on a bounce, a global suppression, a newly suppressed email, or a recipient being created or updated.
Can the email use billing details from Recurly?
Yes. The agent can fetch the account, its balance, invoices or subscriptions in Recurly first, then pass those values into a SendGrid send, either as a plain email or as dynamic template data. It tests every scenario, including accounts that are past due and accounts that are not.
What can start an automation from Recurly?
Any of Recurly's 1 trigger in the catalog, including Prerenewal of subscription. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in SendGrid when something happens in Recurly?
Any of SendGrid's 10 actions, including Create or update contact, Send an email, Create custom field and Create list. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from SendGrid to Recurly?
Yes. When something happens in SendGrid, your agent can act in Recurly too. This page covers both directions: SendGrid's triggers and Recurly's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Recurly or SendGrid?
No. Both are in the catalog with their triggers and actions. You describe the automation; your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running.
Can my AI client use Recurly and SendGrid without building an automation?
Yes. With your AI client connected to APIANT, ask it to do something in either app once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. One connection covers both.
What happens when something fails?
Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
