While importing sendgrid mail it is not working

I wanted to send mail using @sendgrid/mail but while I was importing it it is not working. My Code snippet is as below,

import * as sgMail from '@sendgrid/mail';

function sendMail(msg) {
  sgMail.setApiKey("API-KEY");
  sgMail.send(msg, (err, result) => {
    if(err){
        console.error(err);
    }

    console.log(result);
  });
}

const obj = {
    to: "[email protected]",
    from: "[email protected]",
    subject: "abc",
    text: "abc",
    html: "<h1>Working</h1>",
}
sendMail(obj);

This is the code I've did, so now the problem is sgMail.setApiKey is not a function error pops.

If I remove setApiKet then sgMail.send is not a function error pops.

So, If you have any solution then let me know.

If you look at the source of what you are trying to import, you'll find it exports a default instance of MailService and a named export of the class itself. When you import via:

import * as sgMail from '@sendgrid/mail';

All the exports from that file are exported as a new object (sgMail). There are a few ways you can keep this syntax and still do what you want: 

// use the default instance which is exported as 'default'
sgMail.default.send(obj); 
// explictly create your own instance
const svc = new sgMail.MailService();
svc.send(obj);

However, there is an easier way, and it's simply import the default instance directly

import sgMail from '@sendgrid/mail'

You can try this code this is from npmjs website refer npmjs sendgrid/mail

const sgMail = require('@sendgrid/mail');
sgMail.setApiKey(process.env.SENDGRID_API_KEY);
const msg = {
  to: '[email protected]',
  from: '[email protected]',
  subject: 'Sending with Twilio SendGrid is Fun',
  text: 'and easy to do anywhere, even with Node.js',
  html: '<strong>and easy to do anywhere, even with Node.js</strong>',
};
sgMail.send(msg);
