Automate Brevo

Keep your Brevo contacts and lists filled from the places leads come from, and know how your sends are doing. Leads from your CRM are added to the right list, new contacts are posted to Slack, unsubscribes and hard bounces are flagged, and a daily newsletter can be built from your RSS feed. Describe what you want to your AI assistant, check what it will do, and it keeps running with your laptop closed.

Try asking

Create a ClickRuntime automation: give me a link my CRM can post new leads to. Check each email, create or update the contact in Brevo, add them to my 'Prospects' list, and email me a daily count.

Paste it into your assistant. It tells you what it will send or change before it runs live.

Ideas

What you can automate in Brevo

Leads filed into the right Brevo list, a morning newsletter built from your blog, alerts on new contacts and lost ones, and a weekly campaign report. These are ready-made starting points. Anything else you can describe works too.

Any other automation you can describe in words

Your own rules, schedule and AI steps with Brevo, plus any other app. Describe it and your assistant builds it.

Build your own

Build any Brevo automation you can describe

The ideas above are ready-made starting points, not a fixed list. Describe what Brevo should do in your own words, with your conditions, other apps or an AI step, and your assistant writes it, tests it and runs it on ClickRuntime.

  • Your own rules

    Conditions, thresholds, filters and exceptions, written the way you'd explain them to a colleague.

  • Any number of apps

    One automation can read from one app and update several others. Over 248 apps are ready, and anything with an API works too.

  • AI where it helps

    Summaries, classification, extraction and drafts use ClickRuntime's built-in AI, with no extra key.

  • On a schedule or on each event

    Runs as often as every 5 minutes, or the moment an app sends an event, and keeps track of what it already handled.

For example, ask your assistant

Every day, find Brevo contacts that hard bounced and remove them from all my lists, then send me the count.

When a new row is added to my Leads sheet in Google Sheets, add the person to my Brevo Newsletter list with their first name and company.

When a Typeform signup comes in, add the person to Brevo, log them in my Signups sheet in Google Sheets and post the source in #marketing on Slack.

Beyond chat

Have Brevo work when you're not in the chat

Connecting Brevo to ChatGPT or Claude lets you ask about it while you chat. ClickRuntime handles the part that should happen on its own: checks on a schedule and actions on each new event, set up from the same chat and running after you close it.

Setup

Connect Brevo

You connect Brevo with a v3 API key that you generate yourself in your Brevo account.

Brevo

Email/SMS marketing

  1. In Brevo, open the account dropdown and choose SMTP & API.
  2. On the API keys tab, choose Generate a new API key and give it a name.
  3. Copy the key straight away. Brevo shows it only once.
  4. In the ClickRuntime dashboard, open Connections & secrets and save the key as a secret for Brevo.

Good to know

Brevo limits that affect automations

  • Brevo shows a new API key only once. If you lose it, generate another and update the secret.
  • Brevo can restrict API access to approved IP addresses under Settings, Security, Authorized IPs. If you turn on blocking there, calls from ClickRuntime can be refused, and the same setting also covers your SMTP keys.
  • New-contact alerts check Brevo every 15 minutes. Unsubscribe and hard-bounce alerts use a Brevo marketing webhook and arrive as they happen.

FAQ

Questions about automating Brevo

What can ClickRuntime see and change in Brevo?
What your API key can reach: contacts, lists, email campaigns and their statistics. It can create or update contacts, add them to lists, create and send campaigns, and set up marketing webhooks.
Can it send a newsletter for me?
Yes. The RSS newsletter collects new posts from your feed each morning, skips ones already sent, and sends them to your list through Brevo.
Will a lead that already exists be duplicated?
No. Each lead's email is checked and the contact is created or updated, then added to the list you name.
Why might Brevo reject calls after it was working?
The usual cause is the Authorized IPs setting. If blocking was switched on in Brevo's security settings, requests from outside the approved list are refused.
Do I need AI for Brevo automations?
No. Lead imports, alerts and reports run without it. If you want the RSS newsletter to include short summaries, it uses the AI that comes with every ClickRuntime plan, so no AI key is needed.
Is this a Brevo connector for ChatGPT or Claude?
Not for chatting with Brevo data. A chat connector lets your assistant read and change Brevo while you're in the conversation. ClickRuntime is for the work that should happen without you: you set up an automation from the chat once, and it keeps running on a schedule or on each Brevo event.
