Brevo Email Integration (Node.js)
Quickly integrate Brevo to create contacts and send transactional emails
Brevo Email Integration (Node.js)
Easily send transactional emails or manage contacts with Brevo's official Node.js SDK.
🔧 Prerequisites
Install the SDK
npm install -S sib-api-v3-sdk
Generate an API Key Create your key from your Brevo dashboard: 👉 https://app.brevo.com/settings/keys/api
Store your credentials securely
Create a brevo.json file with your API key:
{ "key": "YOUR_API_KEY" }
If using Znote's block loader, you can persist this file with:
const credentials = loadBlock('brevo');
_fs.writeFileSync(`${__dirname}/brevo.json`, credentials);
👤 Create a Contact
You can trigger automated workflows when new contacts are added to a list. 💡 To find your list IDs, visit: https://my.brevo.com/lists Set up automation rules here: https://app.brevo.com/automation/automations
const credentials = require('./brevo.json');
const SibApiV3Sdk = require('sib-api-v3-sdk');
const client = SibApiV3Sdk.ApiClient.instance;
client.authentications['api-key'].apiKey = credentials.key;
const api = new SibApiV3Sdk.ContactsApi();
const contact = new SibApiV3Sdk.CreateContact();
contact.email = 'example@example.com';
contact.listIds = [2]; // Replace with your actual list ID(s)
api.createContact(contact).then(data => {
console.log('Contact created:', JSON.stringify(data));
}).catch(error => {
console.error('Error creating contact:', error);
});
✉️ Send a Transactional Email
Send custom emails with dynamic content, or use pre-defined templates with templateId.
const credentials = require('./brevo.json');
const SibApiV3Sdk = require('sib-api-v3-sdk');
const client = SibApiV3Sdk.ApiClient.instance;
client.authentications['api-key'].apiKey = credentials.key;
const api = new SibApiV3Sdk.TransactionalEmailsApi();
const email = new SibApiV3Sdk.SendSmtpEmail({
subject: "My {{params.subject}}",
htmlContent: "<html><body><h1>This is my first transactional email: {{params.parameter}}</h1></body></html>",
sender: { name: "John Doe", email: "example@example.com" },
to: [{ email: "recipient@example.com", name: "Jane Doe" }],
replyTo: { email: "replyto@znote.io", name: "John Doe" },
params: {
parameter: "My param value",
subject: "Dynamic Subject"
}
// You can also use a predefined template:
// templateId: 1
});
api.sendTransacEmail(email).then(data => {
console.log('Email sent:', JSON.stringify(data));
}).catch(error => {
console.error('Error sending email:', error);
});
