You can use https://github.com/bryglen/yii2-sendgrid#yii-2-bryglen-sendgrid

Installation:

composer require --prefer-dist bryglen/yii2-sendgrid "*"

common/config/main.php

'components' => [
    ...
    'sendGrid' => [
        'class' => 'bryglensendgridMailer',
        'username' => 'your_user_name',
        'password' => 'your password here',
        //'viewPath' => '@app/views/mail', // your view path here
    ],
    ...
],

To send an email, you may use the following code:

$sendGrid = Yii::$app->sendGrid;
$message = $sendGrid->compose('contact/html', ['contactForm' => $form]);
$message->setFrom('from@domain.com')
    ->setTo($form->email)
    ->setSubject($form->subject)
    ->send($sendGrid);
