Posted on April 26, 2022

This is an example of how to send bulk emails to the users in chunks.


$users = DB::get("SELECT * FROM user;");
$chunks = array_chunk($users, 1000); foreach ($chunks as $chunk) { $personalizations = []; foreach ($chunk as $user) { $personalizations[] = [ "to"=> ["email"=>$user['email']], "substitutions"=>[ "{name}" =>$user['name'], ] ]; } $args = [ "personalizations"=>$personalizations, "from"=>[ "name"=>"Sender Name", "email"=>"sender@example.com" ], "subject": "Example", "content": [ { "type": "text/plain", "value": "Hello {name}," }, { "type": "text/html", "value": "Hello {name}" } ] ]; HttpPost( 'https://api.sendgrid.com/v3/mail/send', $args, [ "header"=> [ "Authorization"=> "Bearer $api_code" ] ] ); }
