VirtoCommerce Azure Email Provider


I have deployed VirtoCommerce to the azure cloud service and the website is pretty functional aside from a few quirks. One of these quirks is that, after completing the checkout process no email gets sent to the user account. The email account does exist and I have full access. Do i need to set up something like SendGrid? Or does it natively support that and how do i activate it?

Thanks for helping!


Solution

  • To get VirtoCommerce sending emails you will need to set up and account with SendGrid as mentioned in their documentation.

    You can get setup with SendGrid for free on Azure, via this sign up form.

    Once you have your account details, you can add them to VirtoCommerce by following the instructions for configuring mailSettings (see 'Quick Overview') in the Virto docs.
