If you want to send a SendGrid email when you add new Firebase child records, you can do that using Zapier.
You will need:
To connect your Firebase account to Zapier, you need an active Firebase account. To learn more, see the Firebase tutorial and how to get started with Firebase on Zapier.
To link your Firebase account to Twilio SendGrid, you must have an active Twilio SendGrid account. To learn more, see the Twilio SendGrid API reference and how to get started with Twilio SendGrid on Zapier.
To begin, open the Send Twilio SendGrid email when new Firebase child records are added Zap.
