Panic when sending email

Support
1

Configured tyk analytics like so:

"email_backend": {
    "enable_email_notifications": true,
    "code:": "sendgrid",
    "settings": {
      "ClientKey": "<redacted>"
    },
    "default_from_email": "",
    "default_from_name": ""
  },

Getting a 502 and this panic in log, whenever the app tries to send an email:

panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference
[signal SIGSEGV: segmentation violation code=0x1 addr=0x28 pc=0xa7b094]

Please ignore. I messed up the configuration pretty badly. I got it working now.

Actually, don’t ignore. The reason I messed up the config is because your documentation is wrong:
https://tyk.io/docs/configure/outbound-email-configuration/
Note the colon in "code:": "smtp",

Hi Pavle,

Good catch! We will make sure documentation is corrected.

Cheers,

Denis
