 * Hi there,
 * Does this plugin and the SendGrid extension require the WP Rest API to send notifications?
 * I have a site where I have disabled the WP Rest API for frontend users who are
   not logged in using this plugin – [https://wordpress.org/plugins/disable-wp-rest-api/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/disable-wp-rest-api/).
 * Cheers!

 * Hi, yes, it does, but only in the backend and for composing the notification.
   So if the free version works fine and you’re able to add recipients to your notification,
   SendGrid will work as well.

 * Hi Kuba,
 * Thank you for the information and making such an awesome plugin available to 
   the community!
 * I did find that your plugin requires /notification/v1 to be enabled in the REST
   API. For anyone else looking for a solution, I used this [Disable REST API plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/disable-json-api/)
   and allowed notification access within the plugin settings. Have yet to test 
   SendGrid extension, though as you say if the free version works the extension
   should also be fine.
 * Thanks again!
