Using SendGrid package with C# "Web" as shown in examples, is undefined

The code I'm using looks just like so many examples But "Web" is an undefined type. Even ReSharper can't tell me where to find it. Do I need another reference with a using or has 'Web' been renamed in v 9.9.0?

var myMessage = new SendGridMessage();
            myMessage.AddTo(message.Destination);
            myMessage.From = new EmailAddress("[email protected]", "Fff  
Lll");
            myMessage.Subject = message.Subject;
            myMessage.PlainTextContent = message.Body;
            myMessage.HtmlContent = message.Body;

            var credentials = new NetworkCredential(
                ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["mailAccount"],
                ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["mailPassword"]
            );

            // Create a Web transport for sending email.
            var transportWeb = new Web(credentials);

You are following the V2 api documentation which is now obsolete . You can use the V3 api SDK instead . The sample code is like below 

            var apiKey = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("NAME_OF_THE_ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE_FOR_YOUR_SENDGRID_KEY");
            var client = new SendGridClient(apiKey);
            var from = new EmailAddress("[email protected]", "Example User");
            var subject = "Sending with SendGrid is Fun";
            var to = new EmailAddress("[email protected]", "Example User");
            var plainTextContent = "and easy to do anywhere, even with C#";
            var htmlContent = "<strong>and easy to do anywhere, even with C#</strong>";
            var msg = MailHelper.CreateSingleEmail(from, to, subject, plainTextContent, htmlContent);
            var response = await client.SendEmailAsync(msg);

you need to refer the below namespaces 

using SendGrid;
using SendGrid.Helpers.Mail;

you can also send the mail without the mail helper class . Follow the below link for more usage and demo
