In activating the Event API today, I lost a little time because I didn't get that one both needs to provide a URL and also (a) enable the Event Notification app and (b) modify the app settings to enable specific notifications (e.g. for delivery and for bounces).
I reviewed http://sendgrid.com/documentation/Api... and http://sendgrid.com/developer/postEve... and did not get this.
I then stumbled onto http://sendgrid.com/documentation/app... and figured it out.
Suggestion: Add some text to the first two URLs I consulted - especially the one where the notification URL is set - to highlight that providing a URL is not enough.
Also - it's not clear why there are two pages http://sendgrid.com/developer/postEve... and http://sendgrid.com/app/appSettings/t... for providing the notification URL, or how those two settings would interact.
Highlight that providing an "Event Notification Post Event URL" doesn't activate Event Notification

Christoph, thanks for your suggestion. Us support agents were equally frustrated, and for that reason, had the "Post Event URL" link removed. Now the only place to alter the Event Notification settings is through the app.
