Resolution

Email Activity Feed is a feature Twilio SendGrid provides to customers that allow them to search specific email sends through their account. Customers can conduct a Basic Search by looking up a recipient email address within a date range for a specific account (Subuser or Parent).

Customers can expand their search by clicking the Advance Search button on the top right of the search bar. This allows customers to customize their search through 22 filters. Below is a detailed description of each filter. 

 

Filter Name Description
API Key ID ID of the API Key used to send the message
API Key Name Name of the API Key used to send the message
Account Username of the Subuser account 
Campaign ID

Campaign ID (e.g. 12357890) of the Legacy Marketing Campaigns

Filter by dates: The Email Activity Feed will provide all related events (regardless of the date) linked to a Message ID for events, when searching within the date range. For example, if a customer searches for an “open” event within a date range, the Email Activity Feed will pull up “processed” and “delivered” events outside the date range because the Message ID’s are tied to the “open”, “processed” and “delivered” events. CSV exports of Email Activity Feeds by date range will also include all events tied to the Message IDs within that range.

Additional Information

For quantifying and searching specific events of an email send without any associated events tied to the Message ID, we recommend utilizing our free Event Webhook.
