Create a double opt-in (DOI) confirmation template for Brevo form

You need a specific template to be able to send Double Opt-in (DOI) confirmation emails and retrieve the DOI confirmation in Brevo. 

You'll see, it's pretty easy, but you need to make sure you follow the procedure to make it work! 

❗️ Important
This tutorial only applies if you're using Brevo's forms. If you want to use external forms, please check our dedicated tutorial Using Marketing Automation to create a double opt-in subscription.

⚙️ Setup your template

💡 Good to know
We do not recommend adding personalization using contact attributes to your double opt-in (DOI) confirmation template. Since no information is stored in the attributes of the contacts who will receive this email, only the fallback value will be shown.
  1. Go to Campaigns > Templates.
  2. Click New Template.
  3. Complete the setup data just like a regular email template.
    For the subject, we recommend something clear like Confirm your subscription.
  4. Click Show Advanced Options.
  5. Enter optin in the Add a tag field.

  2. Add a Button block to your template. 
  3. Add the Double opt-in link:
