Simon Mail and Sendgrid Engagement Metrics

Overview

Simon supports reporting on email metrics in near real-time for any flows that are configured to send emails through Simon Mail or SendGrid.

  • Sendgrid metrics are collected via SendGrid's webhook events. You can read SendGrid's documentation for more detail.
  • Metrics are updated every 15 minutes.

Engagement Metrics

Click into any flow with Simon Mail or SendGrid metrics as seen above, and you'll see individual flow level engagement metrics:

Note that if the flow is configured as a one-time message, the date range selector will not be displayed and all metrics will be computed over the entire lifetime of the flow. If this flow has multiple variants sending different emails, these numbers will represent the sum of metrics across all of those emails.
