# Brevo connection guide

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

<meta charset="utf-8">

You can connect to data sources from the [Data sources page on the Supermetrics Hub](https://hub.supermetrics.com/token-management). On the Hub, you can also [share an authentication link](https://docs.supermetrics.com/v1/docs/how-to-connect-to-data-sources-from-supermetrics-hub#share-authentication-link) to connect to a data source you don't have direct access to.

After you connect to the data source on the Hub, you can use the data source connection in [all available destinations](/docs/brevo-connection-guide#connection-instructions).

## 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](https://help.brevo.com/hc/en-us/articles/5740111683858-Authorize-IP-addresses-for-API-calls-to-improve-security#h_01JHJRY73NSJ073T7BFS3WYXF3) and follow Brevo's instructions for setting up IP address handling that works for you.
