This guide contains all permissions and requirements for connecting your Brevo data to Supermetrics.

Brevo errors due to unauthorized IP addresses
Brevo's API requires API calls to come from pre-authorized IP addresses. Supermetrics, however, uses dynamic IP addresses that change regularly, leading to connection errors when Brevo blocks unrecognized IPs.
You can select a suitable setting for handling unknown IP addresses in Brevo's settings:
- Automatic IP review and authorization: Brevo automatically authorizes IP addresses used within the first 30 days of API key creation. After this period, new IPs will require manual review. If enabled before the 30-day period ends, existing IPs may be blocked unless manually added to the authorized list.
- Manual IP authorization: Manually review and approve each unknown IP before allowing API calls.
- No IP review: Allow all unknown IP addresses to make API calls without any review.
Learn more about the IP address authorization methods from Brevo's documentation and follow Brevo's instructions for setting up IP address handling that works for you.
