# Brevo

Connecting Brevo to PYLO, what it brings and how to tell it is working.

Brevo connects to PYLO so that:

- Each lead's Brevo lists and whether they unsubscribed, on the lead's page.
- How many of your emails each lead received, opened and clicked in the last 90 days, and how many of your leads read your emails at all.

## Connecting

Brevo connects by an API key you paste into PYLO. Open Settings, then Integrations, then Brevo.

| You provide | Where to find it |
|---|---|
| API key | In Brevo, open your name at the top right, then SMTP & API, then API keys (it may say API keys & MCP), and generate a standard API key. It starts with xkeysib-. Not the SMTP key and not the MCP key. PYLO reads with it, and adds a lead to a list only when one of your recipes says to. |

## What PYLO reads

- Contacts PYLO asks about by email: their lists, whether email to them is blocked, and the campaigns they received, opened and clicked

It does not read:

- Anyone PYLO does not already hold as a lead
- Transactional emails and SMS, which Brevo keeps apart from campaign statistics
- Anything older than 90 days, which Brevo does not give for one contact by default
