Interact with Instantly API

Overview

This node integrates with the Instantly API to perform various operations on resources such as Accounts, Campaigns, Leads, and Analytics. Specifically, for the Account resource and the Get Single Account operation, it retrieves detailed information about a single email account from Instantly based on the provided email address or selected account.

Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include:

  • Fetching detailed account information for email marketing or CRM synchronization.
  • Automating workflows that require validation or enrichment of account data.
  • Integrating Instantly account data into broader automation pipelines.

Example use case: Automatically retrieve an email account's details when a new lead is added, to personalize outreach or update contact records.

Properties

Name Meaning
Email Account The email account to operate on. You can select an existing email account from a searchable list or specify an email address directly.

The "Email Account" property supports two modes:

  • From List: Select an email account from a dropdown populated by fetching accounts from Instantly.
  • By Email: Manually enter an email address to identify the account.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the requested account's details as returned by the Instantly API. This typically includes fields such as email, first name, last name, and other account-specific metadata.

If the operation fails or encounters an error, the output JSON will contain an error field with the error message.

No binary data output is produced by this node.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Instantly API.
  • The node depends on the Instantly API endpoints, specifically /api/v2/accounts for listing and retrieving account data.
  • Proper configuration of the Instantly API credentials in n8n is necessary.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Failure to load email accounts in the dropdown may indicate network issues or invalid API credentials.
    • Specifying an email address that does not exist in Instantly will result in no data or an error.
  • Error messages:

    • "Failed to load email accounts: <message>": Indicates problems fetching accounts for the dropdown; verify API credentials and connectivity.
    • Errors during execution will be returned in the output JSON under the error key if "Continue On Fail" is enabled.
  • Resolution tips:

    • Ensure the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions.
    • Confirm the email address exists in Instantly before running the node.
    • Use the "From List" mode to avoid typos in email addresses.
