Hi,  
As the title says I’m looking to implement something we’ve all used a thousand times, which is when a new user signs-up to our app they receive an email with a verification link which they need to tap/click to verify their email address; do you have anything you can recommend?

We currently use the OTP verification method, but it’s a bit clunky and I’m looking to implement something a little more elegent

SendGrid

Hi,  
thanks for these.  
However I’m wanting to send my users a URL link which they’ll click/tap on. Both of the video tutorials, while very good, show how to setup sending an OTP to the users email address (which I already have implemented)…hmmmm…

I suggest [Adastacks](https://docs.adastacks.com/email-verification) , [Abracadalo](https://docs.abracadalo.com/notification-api#send) or [Sendgrid](https://sendgrid.com/solutions/email-api/)! Because they are easy to setup!

Please do you have a step by step video of how sendgrid works? I tried Adastacks and the verification code returns UNDEFINED  
but @pford hasn’t responded to my mail for 12hrs now.

For Sengrid you can check this video! : [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ss6ow34uM38](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ss6ow34uM38)

In where you add this custom action? This has to be in another screen because there’s a Signup Limitation that if we use Logged in user properties with other actions on the Signup form the actions don’t return them. Patrick shows that : [https://youtu.be/SsD9vAHFCaA?t=309](https://youtu.be/SsD9vAHFCaA?t=309)

Hope Patrick will get back to you soon! But I also suggest to join the Slack channel because in there Patrick replies for the question faster! Invite : [Slack](https://join.slack.com/t/adastacks/shared_invite/zt-mzb3e01g-Xg2y9wMXj_OOpoPLLPPPhQ)

@endieumunna the logs show the email is being sent successfully. Can you check your Spam or All Mail folder? The action itself won’t return anything aside from what you showed in your video, but you should definitely receive the email.

Yea Patrick has gotten back to me and without scratching a palm, he gave me the solution. Perfect and smooth. He’s the best out here.
