SendGrid mashup with OneNote

  • Article

 

Hi Gareth here - I wanted to give a shout out to a very cool mashup that Elmer (@thinkingserious) over at SendGrid just blogged about.

Imagine your app sends out a lot of email with a service like SendGrid – inevitably some of them don’t reach their intended target ‘cos the person has moved jobs or the mail server is glitching or whatever. What do you do? You need some sort of human-driven process to decide the next steps.

Enter OneNote as a great place to manage this process in a loose way, where the next step might be fix a typo, redo the mail-blast, phone the person instead or a whole bunch of other actions. Elmer’s post shows you the basics of hooking this type of system up to spur your imagination.

Here’s what it might look like:

Anyone else sending this type of workflow to OneNote? Let us know.
