海外TECH	DEV Community	Get email alerts from serverless Azure functions using SendGrid	https://dev.to/pwd9000/get-email-alerts-from-serverless-azure-functions-using-sendgrid-217m	Get email alerts from serverless Azure functions using SendGrid OverviewI recently posted a tutorial on how to better manage and maintain the lifecycle of Azure resources automating resource decommissions by using a simple Decommission tag with a date value and an Azure serverless Function App The tutorial also includes how to track successful and failed decommissions using the function apps own storage account by recording the decommission events into table storage The full tutorial can be found here Automate Azure Resource Decommissions with tracking Marcel L・Dec ・ min read azurefunctions azure serverless automation This brings me to this new tutorial I want to share with you today I was thinking how we can even better the process by also getting an email alert when a resource has been decommissioned or if a decommission has failed and perhaps including the error message in the alert if it was a failed decommission So today I will share with you a general guide on how we can utilize a service in Azure called SendGrid to send us email notifications from an Azure Function App This tutorial is only a general guide on how to utilize the SendGrid service inside of a Function App to send notification emails and does not follow on my previous tutorial This guide is meant to serve as a supplement to show how to set up the SendGrid service and utilize the service in any Powershell based Function App in any environment giving the ability to send email notifications to relevant stakeholders Feel free to integrate the steps in this tutorial in addition to my previous blog post mentioned above if you have the additional requirement to be notified by email about resource decommissions Let s get started What is SendGrid SendGrid is a third party provider in Azure that provides a cloud based email service The service manages various types of email including shipping notifications friend requests sign up confirmations and email newsletters It also handles internet service provider ISP monitoring domain keys sender policy framework SPF and feedback loops Additionally provides link tracking open rate reporting It also allows companies to track email opens unsubscribes bounces and spam reports Azure offers a variety of SendGrid pricing plans For the purpose of our use case and this tutorial we will create and use the FREE plan which gives us access to the API and also emails day forever Steps to set upWe are going to need to perform the following steps Create Azure resources Optional We will first create a Resource Group PowerShell based Function App and KeyVault This step is optional only for this demo tutorial Create a SendGrid account We will create a FREE SendGrid account activate the account and create a sender identity Generate a SendGrid API Key We will generate an API Key store this key in the key vault and consume it in our PowerShell function to authenticate to the SendGrid service Create a SendGrid API PowerShell Function We will create a PowerShell function to interact with the SendGrid API and service to send an email notification Integrate PowerShell Function into Function App We will integrate our PowerShell function into our Function App and test Create Azure resourcesTo set up the function app I wrote a PowerShell script using AZ CLI that would build and configure the function app to use as a demo for this tutorial There was one manual step however I will cover a bit later on You can find the script I used on my github code page called Azure Pre Reqs ps First we will log into Azure by running az loginAfter logging into Azure and selecting the subscription we can run the script that will create the function app resources and set the environment up code Azure Pre Reqs ps Log into Azure az login Setup Variables

environment Create a resource group called SendGrid Function App Demo Create a PowerShell Function App with SystemAssigned managed identity consumption app service plan insights a key vault and function app storage account Configure Function App environment variables Will be consumed inside of function app later NOTE You will see that we are referencing the fromAddress and sendGridApiKey from our key vault Assign Function App SystemAssigned managed identity permissions to access read secrets on the key vault Create two dummy key vault secrets called fromAddress and sendGridApiKey which we will update later Remember I mentioned earlier there is one manual step In the next step we will change the requirements psd file on our function to allow the AZ module inside of our function by uncommenting the following This file enables modules to be automatically managed by the Functions service See for additional information For latest supported version go to To use the Az module in your function app please uncomment the line below Az NOTE Remember to save the manual change we made on requirements psd above Create a SendGrid accountNext we will create a SendGrid Account Go to the Azure Portal and search services for SendGrid and create an account We will use the Free account as mentioned earlier You will need to provide contact details such as your email address and phone number as SendGrid is a SaaS service subscription Shortly after creating the SendGrid Azure resource you will receive an activation email on the email address you have provided at creation time After activation you can navigate to the SendGrid publisher s site directly from Azure From the dashboard we will proceed to create the Sender Identity Note For the From Email Address sender verification is required If the email domain doesn t match one of your authenticated domains you ll need to verify ownership of the email address before using it as a sender Generate a SendGrid API KeyNext we will create an API key Navigate to Settings gt API Keys and click on Create API key Give the API Key a Name then select Full Access and then click on Create amp View The API key will only be displayed once so make sure that you copy the key and navigate back to the key vault that we created in the previous step and save the key under the key vault secret called sendGridApiKey Additionally also update the fromAddress secret in the key vault with the sender identity From Email Address that you have verified in the previous step Create a SendGrid API PowerShell FunctionThe following function can also be found on my github code page called SendGrid Notification psIt is a simple PowerShell function to send an email via the SendGrid API and service we created in an earlier step code SendGrid

Subject Error notification from Azure Function App via SendGrid API Body body APIKey apiKey SendGrid Notification ParametersLets take a closer look at what this code actually does In the first few lines we can see that the function app will take an input parameter called Timer This parameter is linked to the cron timer we set when we created the function app earlier Next we are loading the Powershell function we created to allow us to send notifications via the SendGrid service API Next we set up some variables create a forced error and then send that error in an email alert to a recipient address via the SendGrid service API NOTE Note that the apiKey and from address on line and line are actually referenced from environment variables which are the application settings of the Function App which is referenced by the Key Vault secrets we set up earlier Testing the FunctionLets run and test our Function app and see if we get an email alert via the SendGrid service Navigate to the Function app and select the function we created earlier Select Code Test followed by Test Run and then click on Run A few seconds later you should see the email notification that was triggered by the Function App and sent via the SendGrid service API I hope you have enjoyed this post and have learned something new You can also find the code samples used in this blog post on my Github page ️

海外TECH	Engadget	The best of CES 2022	https://www.engadget.com/engadget-best-of-ces-2022-200032353.html?src=rss	The best of CES You all know what they say about the best laid plans Though Engadget intended to send a few editors to cover CES in person we later decided amid surging covid cases that it would be best if our entire staff just stayed home and covered the show remotely In the end too we also decided it would be easiest under these very fluid circumstances to do our own thing for our annual CES Awards which since we have produced in partnership with the Consumer Technology Association the trade group that organizes CES itself Though we can t hand out awards in person this year we do still have opinions And we re about to share them with you What follows are all of our favorites from CES which despite some stormy press turned out to be a surprisingly busy show if not in foot traffic then certainly in hard news As in years past we arrived at these picks by first asking the editors who cover these categories year round to weigh in on a shortlist Then our wider team voted using a ranked choice system Maybe one day we ll also tell you about the dark horse favorites that almost but didn t quite make the cut ーDana Wollman Editor in ChiefBest Accessibility ProductOrCam MyEye ProOrCamFor people with low vision or difficulty reading camera based gadgets with object recognition can make life a little easier OrCam s MyEye Pro is a wearable camera module that can be attached to any pair of glasses Like previous generations the MyEye Pro can read text identify objects and faces and tell the wearer what it sees via an onboard speaker or paired Bluetooth headphones In addition to a touch sensitive control panel OrCam offers voice control via the company s own assistant with the “Hey OrCam hotword The Pro also features a faster processor than older models an additional microphone stronger magnets and improved tactile cues It has a new interactive “Smart Reading feature that lets users ask their MyEye to quickly find specific information like phone numbers the total on a bill a particular word on a page and more MyEye Pro is one of a few assistive devices built specifically to help people with vision impairments or reading disabilities Though smartphones can arguably perform similar tasks the fact that the OrCam can be mounted on spectacles makes it easier for extended reading or all day use The company needs to address some usability issues and like most assistive devices the MyEye is very expensive starting at But with greater awareness of the existence of such products perhaps more insurance providers will consider covering some of the cost ーCherlynn Low Deputy Editor ReviewsBest Health and Fitness ProductWithings Body ScanWithingsWithings has been doing all it can to push the boundaries of what a bathroom weighing scale can do for a long while now This year at CES the company unveiled the Withings Body Scan which aims to bring a number of new health monitoring technologies into your home The Body Scan s most obvious new feature is the pull out handlebar that you ll hold in front of your waist while you re standing on the deck This allows the device to run an ECG to check on your heart health offer up sequential body composition data and most intriguing analyze your nerve activity It s not just the breadth of data the Body Scan promises to analyze but the claimed depth that impressed us Withings says that its six lead ECG will produce medical grade results and that its output can easily be read by a cardiologist Meanwhile the nerve activity tracking will look for signs of nerve degeneration which can be caused by obesity and treated with appropriate remedial action It s a hell of a lot of tech to pack into one consumer device and if Withings makes good on its promises it may become the bathroom scale of choice for anyone who wants to keep tabs on their health ーDaniel Cooper Senior EditorBest WearableRazer Zephyr ProRazerIn a year where many CES attendees decided to stay home amid rising COVID cases it feels fitting that our favorite wearable at the show was a smart mask Tech companies had already started to put their spin on face coverings with Razer s original Zephyr mask and LG s PuriCare Mask With a gamer steampunk inspired design the first gen Zephyr combined N filters dual fan active air filtration system and of course RGB lighting all in one striking device Razer followed up this year with the Zephyr Pro and one new feature in particular is worth highlighting the ability to amplify your voice by decibels up to one meter away It solves a problem most of us have experienced at some point over the past couple of years You try to order a coffee and the barista behind the counter can t hear you over your mask not to mention the protective plastic wall separating you both In theory if you re wearing the Zephyr Pro you shouldn t have this problem Whenever you don t want to use the feature or maybe just want to conserve battery you can turn off voice amplification We don t know exactly when the Zephyr Pro will come out but Razer has said it will cost or for the starter pack with days worth of filters Is the Zephyr Pro a bit excessive Yes Will the RGB lighting make you look ridiculous You bet But even so we have to hand it to Razer for making masked interactions just a little easier ーValentina Palladino Commerce EditorBest Transportation TechChevrolet Silverado EVChevrolet is already shaping up to be the year of the electric pickup so it was no surprise that GM CEO Mary Barra took to the CES stage on Wednesday to officially unveil the American automaker s second electrified truck the Chevrolet Silverado EV We shouldn t need to explain why Chevy s best selling vehicle going electric is a big deal The new Silverado joins the Hummer EV in GM s burgeoning electric truck lineup soon to be accompanied by Blazer and Equinox EVs and will arrive in two versions the RST First Edition a limited run production with an MSRP just north of followed by the far more affordable WT fleet edition and standard RST both of which start at around Positioned to compete directly with Ford s forthcoming F Lightning the Silverado EV RST will offer a GM estimated mile range up to horsepower and ft lb of torque with the ability to tow up to pounds The WT version will be slightly less powerful but still boasts hp lb ft of torque and pounds of towing capacity Both the RST and WT versions will enter production alongside the Hummer EV line at GM s new Factory ZERO electric vehicle production facility in ーAndrew Tarantola Senior EditorBest Home Theater ProductSamsung Eco Remote SamsungAt CES last year Samsung debuted an Eco Remote that uses indoor or outdoor light to recharge via a solar panel This year the company took things a step further The model brings back the solar panel and adds the ability to recharge using radio frequency RF signals from your WiFi router Since you don t need to replace the battery this eliminates the need to hunt for AAAs which would eventually be destined for a landfill Using energy that otherwise goes to waste the new Eco Remote s low power requirements make it a good choice for harvesting RF waves The device available with either a black or white finish is also equipped with dedicated buttons for streaming services to give you one touch access Sure you ll need a Samsung TV to use it but the greener power sources certainly help the device live up to its name And hopefully Samsung s clever use of RF waves can serve as inspiration for other TV manufacturers ーBilly Steele Senior News EditorBest Smart Home ProductTP Link Archer AXE OmniTP LinkIt wouldn t be CES if we didn t see some crazy routers and TP Link delivered this year The TP Link AXE Omni router has the over the top design that the company typically saves for its most expensive and powerful devices but this model has a trick we ve never seen before It packs four mechanical antennas that can rotate automatically based on the placement and location of devices using your WiFi connection Sure this feature looks cool in action almost anthropomorphic even but TP Link s history making top flight routers means this likely isn t a gimmick And the rest of its specs are top of the line too It has tri band WiFi E capable of delivering speeds of up to Gbps There are also Gigabit ethernet ports for wired connections Given how many devices most households have these days having a powerful reliable router is crucial to keeping everything online TP Link s latest should be able to do that no matter how many gadgets you need to connect ーNathan Ingraham Deputy Editor NewsBest Phone or TabletAsus ZenBook FoldAsusThere was no shortage of mobile devices at CES this year ranging from OnePlus new flagship to Samsung s latest value for money phone If the award should go to the most memorable though there was one clear pick We ve chosen ASUS ZenBook Fold for attempting to redefine tablets foldables and laptops in one fell swoop The foldable tablet category isn t exactly novel given past entries like Lenovo s ThinkPad X Fold ASUS offering is decidedly bolder though with a inch OLED screen that offers a huge canvas and various usage possibilities think a book like reader or a desktop PC You ll even have a usable laptop thanks to an included Bluetooth keyboard that allows the folded tablet to function as a inch Windows laptop All told this is one of the most versatile tablets we ve seen and it could replace more than just your notebook depending on how you use it ーJon Fingas Weekend EditorBest TV TechSamsung QD DisplaySamsung DisplayWe ve praised LG s OLED TVs for years mainly because they represent a huge upgrade over LCDs in almost every way Their one big weakness is brightness LCDs rely on backlights that can reach far beyond a single OLED which can t burn too hot or they risk failure OLEDs also lose a bit of color accuracy the brighter they get Now Samsung believes it has a solution QD Display an updated OLED technology that relies on quantum dots to supercharge colors and deliver more brightness On paper it seems like the biggest advancement in TV technology we ve seen in years While Samsung isn t showing off its own QD Display TVs yet Sony leapt at the chance to adopt the technology for its new AK premium TV That proves it s more than just an expensive tech demo for the super rich like Samsung s MicroLED equipped quot The Wall quot It s certainly ironic that Samsung is heralding OLED now after downplaying the technology in TVs for years and pushing QLED sets instead But no matter It s better for consumers and the industry overall if there s more than one company producing OLED TVs ーDevindra Hardawar Senior EditorBest Gaming ProductSony PlayStation VRSonyAmong the souped up graphics cards laptop chips desktop concepts and console accessories on display at CES the most exciting gaming announcement involved no actual product at all Sony revealed the name logo and specs for its next virtual reality headset PlayStation VR and even though the device didn t make an appearance the details were enough to get us excited about the upcoming headset The PS VR has a display resolution of x for each eye a degree field of view K HDR capabilities and frame rates of Hz or Hz The new device has upgraded eye tracking software and it also supports foveated rendering a gaze based feature common in high end PC headsets The addition of inside out tracking means it doesn t require an external camera a nice step up from the original PS VR The most surprising detail about the PS VR is the fact that it includes an internal motor that can make the headset vibrate providing a new level of haptic feedback or maybe just a headache In addition to all those details Sony confirmed an original game in the Horizon universe is heading exclusively to the headset and developer Guerrilla gave us a quick tease of first person robot dino hunting Console gaming news at CES is a rarity which makes Sony s showing this year stand out even without any actual hardware ーJessica Conditt Senior EditorBest LaptopLenovo ThinkPad Z SeriesLenovoCome for the lid stay for the sustainability Or maybe it s the other way around When we first saw the ThinkPad Z series at a private demo ahead of CES we were immediately charmed by its lid which is designed to be openable with just one hand But as we learned more about these sleek laptops available with and inch screens we were impressed with their focus on sustainability including materials like recycled aluminum and vegan leather and a charger made of percent recyclable material Even the packaging is percent recyclable thanks to compostable materials like bamboo and sugarcane We haven t even talked about the potentially solid performance The Z and Z are the result of a collaboration with AMD In fact these are among the first machines with AMD s high performance Ryzen PRO Series laptop processors On the outside the Z boasts a K OLED display while the has a K screen also OLED Both machines support Dolby Vision along with Dolby Atmos and Dolby AI noise cancellation We look forward to reviewing them closer to when they go on sale in May ーDana Wollman Editor in chiefBest Sustainable ProductGoodyear Sustainable Material TireGoodyearWhether it s powered by an internal combustion engine or an electric battery a vehicle s tires remain one of its least eco friendly components Traditional tires are resource intensive to produce and difficult to dispose of with only a small fraction of them ending up actually being recycled As such Goodyear two years ago set an ambitious goal for itself develop a percent sustainable tire by Two years into this project the company is already well on its way toward meeting that goal Earlier this week the company unveiled its percent sustainable concept tire which features ingredients across nine different tire components that were formerly made with petroleum and other non renewable resources For example carbon black and other petrol based rubbers are typically used as filler materials to enhance a tire s durability and usable lifespan Goodyear has substituted these with more eco friendly methane carbon dioxide and plant based oil all of which are produced in ways that generate fewer greenhouse gasses than carbon black Additionally Goodyear employs silica which increases a tire s grip on the road that has been derived from rice husk ash a common by product of the rice milling process Whether Goodyear releases a tire utilizing all of its sustainable technologies by or simply works individual materials into upcoming models the environment still stands to benefit ーAndrew Tarantola Senior EditorBest WildcardBMW iX Flow featuring E InkBMWWhen it comes to CES there are so many left field products on display that it can sometimes be hard to define a “wildcard Is it a futuristic concept a bizarre novelty or simply something you had no idea would be good until it was presented to you This year BMW s iX Flow featuring E Ink ticked the “well we didn t expect that box the hardest and it s certainly a striking concept Essentially BMW coated the skin of its iX car with the same electrophoretic coating you ll find in most e readers The pitch being that at the touch of a button you can change the color of your vehicle to reflect your current mood You know as one does Of course while the BMW iX itself is a road ready car the E Ink coating isn t something you can expect to buy in the near future But even being able to switch from black to white makes plenty of sense in these more energy conscious times In warm weather you can paint the car white and help reflect some of the sun s heat reducing the drain on your AC And when it gets cold you can reverse the process helping to store up more warmth to keep you and your battery nice and cozy Even better if the company gets a color E Ink version working then we never need to worry about being stuck with someone else s idea of a good paint job ーDaniel Cooper Senior EditorBest of the BestChevrolet Silverado EVChevroletCES brought us a bevy of innovative announcements from the automotive industry from chameleon skinned BMWs to a sun soaked mile electric Mercedes But as ranked choice systems are wont to do there can be only one overall winner This year the king of the CES hill is Chevrolet s Silverado EV an electrified pickup that is sure to give both global warming and rival EV the Ford F Lightning a run for their money The Silverado is already one of America s most popular pickup models having sold more than half a million US units in alone Pickups and SUVs in general are far and away the best selling vehicle types in the US but those same buyers have historically been reticent to adopt more eco friendly alternatives to conventional internal combustion cars and trucks ーheck just a few years ago many diesel owners were giddily “rolling coal for the social media clout But as fuel prices and sea surface temperatures continue to rise the prospect of driving up to miles or more using nothing but a battery has become a compelling feature for drivers and automakers alike GM has already pledged to sell “ new global electric vehicles by starting with the Hummer EV which is already being delivered to early buyers The Chevy Silverado Blazer Equinox and GMC Sierra all poised for production runs of their own starting in And once these EVs roll off their respective assembly lines they ll be faced with stiff competition from Ford Tesla Rivian Toyota and other car makers eager to cash in on America s newfound love affair with electrified pickups ーAndrew Tarantola Senior Editor	2022-01-07 20:00:32
