# How to Connect Mailchimp or Brevo to Lumo Forms

## Overview

Connecting a form to an email marketing platform can reduce manual data entry and help you organize subscribers or leads.

Lumo Forms offers integration options such as Mailchimp and Brevo in supported versions. The available fields, mapping options, and automation behavior may vary by integration.

## Step 1: Prepare Your Marketing Account

Sign in to your Mailchimp or Brevo account.

Choose the audience, list, or contact destination where you want eligible form submissions to be sent.

Review the platform's rules for subscriber consent, data handling, and contact management.

## Step 2: Create the Required Credentials

Open the integration's official account settings and generate the credentials required by the platform and Lumo Forms.

Treat API keys and access tokens as secrets. Store them only in the designated secure integration settings and never paste them into public page content.

## Step 3: Connect the Platform

Open the Lumo Forms integration settings and select the relevant service.

Follow the connection instructions for your installed version. Some integrations may use a global account connection with a separate per-form assignment.

Save the connection and confirm that the plugin reports a successful setup, if a status indicator is provided.

## Step 4: Assign the Integration to a Form

Open the form that collects the information you want to send to the marketing platform.

Choose the integration or connection and configure the supported action, audience, and field mapping options.

Map fields carefully. For example, map the form's email field to the marketing platform's email field and the name field to the appropriate name field if supported.

## Step 5: Test the Connection

Submit a test entry using an address you control.

Check whether the expected contact appears in the correct audience or list. Verify that mapped values are correct and that the integration handles errors as expected.

Do not assume every form submission automatically becomes a subscribed contact. Consent and the integration's configured behavior matter.

## Troubleshooting

**The connection fails:** Check the credentials, account permissions, and any provider-specific API requirements.

**Contacts are not appearing:** Verify that the integration is enabled for the correct form, the field mapping is valid, and the provider has not rejected the request.

**Fields are missing:** Confirm that the destination fields exist and are supported by the integration.

## Privacy Best Practices

Collect only the data you need. Explain newsletter or marketing consent clearly and do not subscribe visitors to marketing lists without an appropriate legal basis and consent where required.
