- Customer.io account with API access
- Site ID and API Key from Customer.io dashboard

## Instructions

- Environment variables or .env file with Site ID and API Key
- Successful connection verification output

## Error Handling
| Error | Cause | Solution |
|-------|-------|----------|

| Invalid Site ID | Wrong site identifier | Check Site ID in Customer.io Settings |
| 401 Unauthorized | Authentication failed | Ensure both Site ID and API Key are correct |
