Troubleshooting guide

Send your first event.

Events start automations, update fields, and build segments. One request puts real data in your account.

Copy your keys
Your publishable key, secret key, and site UUID live under Settings, API Keys. How auth works
Send one event
Post it with cURL or an official SDK. Raw HTTP requests need a User-Agent header.
Find it in Bento
Search for the email in your dashboard. The event shows on that subscriber’s activity timeline.

Shell

curl -X POST 'https://app.bentonow.com/api/v1/batch/events?site_uuid=YOUR_SITE_UUID' \
  -H 'Authorization: Basic YOUR_BASE64_CREDENTIALS' \
  -H 'User-Agent: MyApp/1.0' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{
    "events": [{
      "type": "$custom.quickstart_test",
      "email": "test@example.com",
      "fields": { "first_name": "Test" }
    }]
  }'

A successful request returns { "results": 1, "failed": 0 }
