Links to my page in email are identified as unsafe

I was wondering if anyone else is having this issue. When I send e-mails to activate accounts (or any other email with a link to the site) it opens up and chrome and says the connection is not secure.

If you go to advanced, and click proceed it’s fine - however this would scare some of my users and is not something I would like to do.

I’m currently using sendgrid to send this out.

The link in the email starts with url467.(longstringofstuff).

Anyone have any suggestions on how to resolve this?

Thank you in advance!

Is your app on https?

@elledarrow yes it is!

have updated my sengdrid setting as well - I believe this fixed it

Hi @maurice,

How did you fix this in Sendgrid? I have the same problem with password reset emails. They start with url4593.longstring and they are not https.

Thanks

Hi @mangooly thought I had fixed it, but the problem re-appeared the other day again. Not sure what is driving this, and still haven’t found a solution.

I recently registered my site to google search console and verified it there. I will see if the problem re-appears again.

For me its working with the following options,

1/ Settings -> Sender authentication -> Domain authentication (Status verified)

2/ Settings -> Sender authentication -> Link branding (Empty). When I removed this it worked. This is what creates the links with long strings. It uses Sendgrid.net links, but it actually forwards the links to your own domain. For me this is enough for the moment.

I hope eventually Bubble builds something more native rather than having to go to some other service (Sendgrid.net) to setup your email. This process is still really complicated and relies too much on another service with no guarantees.
