Prerequisites

Before proceeding, ensure the following prerequisites are met:

  1. Install MindsDB locally via Docker or use MindsDB Cloud.
  2. To connect Sendinblue to MindsDB, install the required dependencies following this instruction.
  3. Install or ensure access to Sendinblue.

​
Connection

This handler is implemented using the sib-api-v3-sdk library, a Python library that wraps Sendinblue APIs.

The required arguments to establish a connection are as follows:

  • api_key: a required Sendinblue API key to use for authentication

Check out this guide on how to create the Sendinblue API key.

It is recommended to use the API key to avoid the API rate limit exceeded error.

Here is how to connect the SendinBlue to MindsDB:

CREATE DATABASE sib_datasource
WITH ENGINE = 'sendinblue',
PARAMETERS = {
  "api_key": "xkeysib-..."
};

​
Usage

Use the established connection to query your database:

SELECT * FROM sib_datasource.email_campaigns

Run more advanced queries:

SELECT  id, name
FROM sib_datasource.email_campaigns
WHERE status = 'sent'
ORDER BY name
LIMIT 5
