+## Migrating from v2 to v3
+
+Please review [our guide](https://sendgrid.com/docs/Classroom/Send/v3_Mail_Send/how_to_migrate_from_v2_to_v3_mail_send.html) on how to migrate from v2 to v3.
+
+<a name="v2"></a>
+## Continue Using v2
+
+[Here](https://github.com/sendgrid/sendgrid-nodejs/tree/b57b32caa47608a15d23940a0dedc82a91e7b6aa) is the last working version with v2 support.
+
+The following recommended installation requires [npm](https://npmjs.org/). If you are unfamiliar with npm, see the [npm docs](https://npmjs.org/doc/). Npm comes installed with Node.js since node version 0.8.x therefore you likely already have it.
+
+Add the following to your `package.json` file:
+
+```json
+{
+  ...
+  "dependencies": {
+    ...
+    "sendgrid": "1.9.2"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Install sendgrid-nodejs and its dependencies:
+
+```bash
+npm install
+```
+
+### Alternative Installation
+
+You can also install sendgrid locally with the following command:
+
+```bash
+npm install sendgrid@1.9.2
+```
+
+Download:
+
+Click the "Clone or download" green button in [GitHub](https://github.com/sendgrid/sendgrid-nodejs/tree/b57b32caa47608a15d23940a0dedc82a91e7b6aa) and choose download.

+## Testing v3 /mail/send Calls Directly
+
+[Here](https://sendgrid.com/docs/Classroom/Send/v3_Mail_Send/curl_examples.html) are some cURL examples for common use cases.
+
+<a name="error"></a>
+## Error Messages
+
+To read the error message returned by SendGrid's API:
+
+```javascript
+  var helper = require('sendgrid').mail
+  from_email = new helper.Email("test@example.com")
+  to_email = new helper.Email("test@example.com")
+  subject = "Hello World from the SendGrid Node.js Library!"
+  content = new helper.Content("text/plain", "Hello, Email!")
+  mail = new helper.Mail(from_email, subject, to_email, content)
+
+  var sg = require('sendgrid').SendGrid(process.env.SENDGRID_API_KEY)
+  var requestBody = mail.toJSON()
+  var request = sg.emptyRequest()
+  request.method = 'POST'
+  request.path = '/v3/mail/send'
+  request.body = requestBody
+  sg.API(request, function (response) {
+    console.log(response.statusCode)
+    console.log(response.body)
+    console.log(response.headers)
+  })
+```
+
+<a name="versions"></a>
+## Versions
+
+We follow the MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH versioning scheme as described by [SemVer.org](http://semver.org). Therefore, we recommend that you always pin (or vendor) the particular version you are working with to your code and never auto-update to the latest version. Especially when there is a MAJOR point release, since that is guarenteed to be a breaking change. Changes are documented in the [CHANGELOG](https://github.com/sendgrid/sendgrid-nodejs/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md) and [releases](https://github.com/sendgrid/sendgrid-nodejs/releases) section.
+
+<a name="environment"></a>
+## Environment Variables and Your SendGrid API Key
+
+All of our examples assume you are using [environment variables](https://github.com/sendgrid/sendgrid-nodejs#setup-environment-variables) to hold your SendGrid API key.
+
+If you choose to add your SendGrid API key directly (not recommended):
+
+`process.env.SENDGRID_API_KEY`
+
+becomes
+
+`'SENDGRID_API_KEY'`
+
+In the first case SENDGRID_API_KEY is in reference to the name of the environment variable, while the second case references the actual SendGrid API Key.

+## Using the Package Manager
+
+We upload this library to [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/package/sendgrid) whenever we make a release. This allows you to use [npm](https://www.npmjs.com) for easy installation.
+
+In most cases we recommend you download the latest version of the library, but if you need a different version, please use:
+
+`npm install sendgrid@X.X.X`
+
+If you are usring a `package.json` file:
+
+```json
+{
+  ...
+  "dependencies": {
+    ...
+    "sendgrid": "X.X.X"
+  }
+}
+```
