I’m using the @sendgrid/mail library in my Express backend to send emails when an order is purchased. However, the email subject does not appear in the sent emails. I’ve tried setting the subject both as static text and using dynamic text, but neither seems to work.
Here’s the relevant part of the code:
await sgMail.send({
to: result.contactEmail.trim(),
from: "[email protected]",
subject: "Order Confirmation",
templateId: sendgrid_template_id,
dynamicTemplateData: {
...result,
},
});
The structure is the same as given in the official documentation
Ideally, I want the subject line to include the confirmation number, like Order Confirmation #${confirmationNumber}.
Additional Information:
I have set dynamicTemplateData with other email data, but there is no subject field in the result object or the template that might override the email subject.
Also, no personalizations are being used in this configuration to harden the problem.
Environment Details:
Node.js version: 16.20.2
Express version: ~4.17.1
@sendgrid/mail version: 7.7.0
Thanks!
All of these questions from StackOverflow are similar to mine, but not the same:
- Sendgrid email subject is missing
- Send Sendgrid Email Without Subject
- Variable within Sendgrid subject with dynamic_template_variable_data doesn’t work
Could anyone help me understand why the subject is not being set and how I can dynamically include the confirmation number in the subject line?
