TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'providing_args'

If you are getting this error, it is because Django 4 seems to have removed this argument.

Changing the line on /sendgrid_backend/signals.py

from:
sendgrid_email_sent = django.dispatch.Signal(providing_args=["message", "fail_flag"])

to:
sendgrid_email_sent = django.dispatch.Signal()

fixes the problem for me.

My Environment:
Python3 version: 3.8.10
Django version: 4.1.8

Thanks for reporting the issue! Do you mind making a PR to fix this? With a feature flag for the Django version?

I must have been using an old version because I see it's already done in master long time ago. However, I had installed it using pip install django-sendgrid-v5 could that be still old somehow?

Looks like version 1.2.3 is released to PyPi and should have all relevant commits from master
