To, ToName and Substitution values getting jumbled.

[gs-spadmanabhan]

Hi,

Currently the curl command which is getting framed by this framework is something like this
api_user=XXXXXX&api_key=XXXXXX&to[0]=sunandonline@gmail.com&to[1]=spadmanabhan@gainsight.com&to[2]= samosachat@gmail.com&toname[1]=sunand&toname[2]=sp&toname[3]=samosa&x-smtpapi={"sub":{"there":["Sunand Online","SP","Samosa Chat"]}}&subject=Hello there&text=Hi there&html=Hi there, How are you?&from=spadmanabhan@gainsight.com

This is wrong, this is getting re-ordered at the sendgrid end it sends wrong Substitution values to recipients and also sets incorrect to and toname combination

The correct one is below, we should not specify to[1] and toname[1]
api_user=XXXXXX&api_key=XXXXXX&to[]=sunandonline@gmail.com&to[]=spadmanabhan@gainsight.com&to[]= samosachat@gmail.com&toname[]=sunand&toname[]=sp&toname[]=samosa&x-smtpapi={"sub":{"there":["Sunand Online","SP","Samosa Chat"]}}&subject=Hello there&text=Hi there&html=Hi there, How are you?&from=spadmanabhan@gainsight.com

This should be fixed in buildingEmailBody.

Do not use spaces inside your substitution tags, e.g. %first name%

As you can see in the above curl request I am not using any spaces in Substitution tag (key name). In the request the key is "there" and values i am replacing with a text content which has space. Is that a problem?

[gs-spadmanabhan]

I could see in the mail TO section, the to and to names are getting jumbled. AS for the substitution is concerned it doesn't have any problem.

[elbuo8]

https://sendgrid.com/docs/API_Reference/SMTP_API/substitution_tags.html

Spaces are not allowed inside the values of the sub tags. The request will get messed up.

[gs-spadmanabhan]

I tried without spaces in the values of sub tags as well. Please try it once from your end and let me know. I have forked your project and made the changes in buildEmailBody(Email) it seems to be working fine now. I can send you the pull request.

I'm also having an issue with the to[] and toname[] values getting jumbled. For example, the actual POST request that is generated by this library has the following segment:

--pom7ute_vZd8oSsyCEYWnbxy6GURKjC
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="to[0]"
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

one@email.com
--pom7ute_vZd8oSsyCEYWnbxy6GURKjC
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="to[1]"
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

two@email.com
--pom7ute_vZd8oSsyCEYWnbxy6GURKjC
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="toname[0]"
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

One
--pom7ute_vZd8oSsyCEYWnbxy6GURKjC
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="toname[1]"
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Two

However, the actual email that I receive on the other end has:
To: Two <one@email.com>, One <two@email.com>

This doesn't appear to be an issue with the sendgrid-java library, but rather something within SendGrid that is jumbling up the to and toname arrays. This may not be the best place to report it, but can someone forward it to the right party?

[gs-spadmanabhan]

Do not fill values inside to[] and toname[] while framing post request body for sendgrid mail api. It will work as expected.

[gs-spadmanabhan]

It's a bug in the library. I have forked the project and I have made
necessary changes.

Thanks & Regards,

I'm not filling in those values myself. The above request body was

Is there an update for this to get into the api as a fix?
