Setup sendgrid email in Laravel

Here are the steps to set up SendGrid email in Laravel:

Sign up for a SendGrid account and obtain an API key.
Add the SendGrid API key to your Laravel environment file (.env) by adding the following line:

SENDGRID_API_KEY=YOUR_SENDGRID_API_KEY

In your Laravel project, install the official SendGrid library by running the following command in your terminal:

composer require sendgrid/sendgrid

Open the config/mail.php file and update the driver option to sendgrid.
In the config/services.php file, add the following code to define the SendGrid API key:

'sendgrid' => [
    'api_key' => env('SENDGRID_API_KEY'),
],

To test the setup, you can use the following code in a controller or route:

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Mail;

$data = [
    'email' => '[email protected]',
    'name' => 'Test User',
    'subject' => 'Test email from SendGrid',
    'body' => 'This is a test email sent from SendGrid.',
];

Mail::send('emails.test', $data, function ($message) use ($data) {
    $message->to($data['email'], $data['name'])->subject($data['subject']);
});

This should send an email using SendGrid. If everything is set up correctly, you should receive an email with the message "This is a test email sent from SendGrid."

Note: You might need to create an email view file (e.g., resources/views/emails/test.blade.php) to render the content of the email.
