SendGrid with Salesforce

Hello All,
I think I need to code your own HTTP Post Request, formatted as JSON.
In order to call SendGrids email API's from my Salesforce Class, but I do not know how to do this.
Can anyone help me with the code that will do this?  I think it would be something similar to this:
string strUsername = 'testusername';
        string strPwd = 'testpwd';

        Http m_http = new Http();
        HttpRequest req = new HttpRequest();
        
            
        req.setEndpoint('"https://api.sendgrid.com/v3/mail/send');
        req.setHeader('Content-Type: application/json'); 
        req.setHeader('Authorization: Bearer SendGridAPIKEY');          
        req.setMethod('POST');
        req.setBody(content);
        
        httpResponse response = m_http.send(req);
Thanks,
Keith.

You are doing on the write way .. but you have an wrapper to make an API calls from the salesforce to send grid
 Refer this link

https://github.com/sendgrid/sendgrid-apex
String body = this.credentialsToWebFormat() + email.toWebFormat();

    HttpRequest req = new HttpRequest();
    Http http = new Http();

    req.setEndpoint(API_URL);
    req.setMethod('POST');
    req.setHeader('Content-Type','application/x-www-form-urlencoded');
    req.setBody(body);
    req.setHeader('Content-Length',String.valueof(body.length()));

Hello Raj,
I have that github project installed in my SF sandbox but it gives me errors and is not working, and no reply from the author or from another post I have in this forum.  So that is why I am trying to use SendGrids API, and trying to create my own HTTP Post.
So with you example how does this fit in with SendGrid, how to I get my TO:, and FROM email address and the email text which is the body.
Thanks
Keith.
