Sorry, it's solved.
I named my sample code as "sendgrid.py", so it import itself as sendgrid module.
Thank you for kindly support

Hello @punisuke,

Please try the quick start here.

I have changed the default branch to v4, because that is the one under active development. But if you are using the current version, then the master branch is where you want to look.

My apologies for the confusion.

With Best Regards,

Elmer
