Connect WordPress to Brevo

Q: Which user does Nodest act as?

The WordPress account that approved the connection. Everything an automation does is carried out with that account's capabilities, so a connection approved by an editor cannot create users, and content it publishes is attributed to that account.

Q: How do I connect Brevo to Nodest?

In Brevo, open the account menu and go to Settings → SMTP & API → API Keys & MCP, then generate a new key. In Nodest, open Integrations, choose Connect Brevo, and paste the key. Brevo shows a key only at the moment you create it, so copy it before you leave that page.

Q: Do I need an API key or an SMTP key to connect Brevo?

An API key. Brevo offers both, and they aren't interchangeable: SMTP keys only authorize sending mail over SMTP, so contacts, lists, and CRM actions will be rejected. Generate the key from the API Keys tab, not the SMTP tab.

Q: Should I give the API key an expiry date?

When a key expires, every Brevo step in every automation fails until you generate a replacement and paste it into the connection. Choose no expiry, or set a reminder well ahead of the date.

Q: Do I have to create the webhooks in Brevo myself?

No. Switching on an automation with a Brevo trigger registers the webhook in your Brevo account, and switching it off removes it again. There is nothing to add by hand under Brevo's webhook settings.

Q: What is the difference between the marketing and transactional triggers?

Marketing events come from campaigns sent to your lists, transactional events from individual emails sent.

Build automations that connect WordPress to Brevo. When something happens in WordPress, Nodest passes the data along and runs the actions you set up in Brevo or the other way around — no coding required.
