# Send email using Brevo

> Learn how to send an email using React Email and the Brevo Node.js SDK.

## 1. Install dependencies

Get the [react-email](https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-email) package and the [Brevo Node.js SDK](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@getbrevo/brevo).

<CodeGroup>
  ```sh npm theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"vesper"}}
  npm install @getbrevo/brevo react-email
  ```

  ```sh yarn theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"vesper"}}
  yarn add @getbrevo/brevo react-email
  ```

  ```sh pnpm theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"vesper"}}
  pnpm add @getbrevo/brevo react-email
  ```

  ```sh bun theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"vesper"}}
  bun add @getbrevo/brevo react-email
  ```
</CodeGroup>

## 2. Create an email using React

Start by building your email template in a `.jsx` or `.tsx` file.

```tsx email.tsx theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"vesper"}}
import { Button, Html } from "react-email";

interface EmailProps {
  url: string;
}

export function Email({ url }: EmailProps) {
  return (
    <Html lang="en">
      <Button href={url}>Click me</Button>
    </Html>
  );
}
```

## 3. Convert to HTML and send email

Import the email template you just built, convert into an HTML string, and use the Brevo SDK to send it.

```tsx theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"vesper"}}
import { BrevoClient } from "@getbrevo/brevo";
import { render } from "react-email";
import { Email } from "./email";

const brevo = new BrevoClient({ apiKey: process.env.BREVO_API_KEY || "" });

const emailHtml = await render(<Email url="https://example.com" />);

await brevo.transactionalEmails.sendTransacEmail({
  sender: { name: "Acme", email: "you@example.com" },
  to: [{ email: "user@gmail.com" }],
  subject: "hello world",
  htmlContent: emailHtml,
});
```
