How to Set Up Double Opt-In Template
Log in to your Sendinblue account. Go to Campaigns >> Templates and click the “New Template” button.
Fill out the template creation form. Importantly, open “Advanced Options” and add the tag “optin” to the template.
Finally, edit the template as desired and add the confirmable link to the template using the merge tag {{ doubleoptin }}
Please Note: Do not add personalization using contact attributes to your double opt-in confirmation template. Since no information is stored in the attributes of the contacts who will receive this email.
Having completed the setup, you can now start capturing leads and sending newsletters.
