Getting started

Make your first API call in 3 steps
1

Get your API key

Generate an API key from your Brevo account. You’ll need it to authenticate every request — copy it immediately, it’s only shown once.

Open API key settings →

In the API keys tab, click Generate a new API key, name it, and save it somewhere secure.

2

Whitelist your IP address

The playground runs from your browser, so Brevo needs to recognize your current IP before processing requests from it.

Your current IP address is:

Detecting your IP address…

Add it to the Authorized IPs list in your Brevo security settings.

Open IP security settings →

Prefer to skip this step? Send your first request anyway. If your IP isn’t whitelisted, Brevo sends a security email with a one-click authorization link — then come back and retry.

Not required when calling the API from a server or CLI.

3

Send your first request

Enter your API key in the api-key header in the panel on the right, then click Send request.

A 200 response with your account details confirms your key is valid — you’re ready to build.
