Brevo
Learn how to send emails via Brevo using Comify.
The Brevo provider (formerly Sendinblue) enables you to deliver professional transactional emails to your customers through the Comify Platform. With a single API integration, you can create seamless multi-channel communication experiences.
Getting Started
Implementing the Brevo email provider requires three primary steps: creating a Brevo account, generating a Brevo API key, and configuring the Brevo integration within your Comify platform.
Creating a Brevo Account
Follow these steps to set up your Brevo account:
- Visit Brevo’s official website and select “Sign Up Free”.
- Enter all required information to create your account.
- Complete the security verification process for your email address.
- Once verification is complete, you’ll be directed to your Brevo dashboard.
- Follow the onboarding process to set up your sender identity and complete your account setup.
Creating a Brevo API Key
Follow these steps to generate and secure your Brevo API key:
- Once logged into your Brevo account, click on your name at the top-right side of the screen.
- Click on SMTP & API from the dropdown menu.
- Under the API Keys tab, click “Generate a new API key”.
- Assign a descriptive name to your key (e.g., “Comify Integration”) for easy identification.

Creating a Comify API Key
Before configuring the Brevo integration, you’ll need to generate a Comify API key for authentication:
