Overview
This node integrates with the Instantly API to update email account details. It allows users to modify various properties of an existing email account such as personal information, sending limits, tracking domain settings, and warmup configurations. This is useful in scenarios where you need to programmatically manage email accounts for marketing or outreach campaigns, ensuring that account settings stay up-to-date without manual intervention.
Practical examples include:
- Adjusting daily sending limits based on campaign performance.
- Enabling or disabling slow ramp-up of sending volume.
- Updating tracking domain information to improve email analytics.
- Configuring warmup parameters to gradually increase sending volume for new accounts.

Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the updated account information returned by the Instantly API after the update operation. Each output item corresponds to one input item processed and contains the updated account details or error information if the update failed.
If binary data were involved (not indicated here), it would typically represent files or attachments related to the account, but this node focuses solely on JSON data.
Dependencies
- Requires an active Instantly API key credential configured in n8n to authenticate API requests.
- Relies on the Instantly API endpoints for accounts management.
- Uses internal helper functions to perform HTTP requests and handle pagination/search for dropdowns.
Troubleshooting
Common Issues:
- Invalid or missing API credentials will cause authentication failures.
- Specifying an email account that does not exist will result in errors.
- Providing invalid values for numeric fields (e.g., negative numbers or out-of-range values) may cause API validation errors.
- Network connectivity issues can prevent communication with the Instantly API.
Error Messages:
"Failed to load email accounts": Indicates problems fetching accounts for dropdown selection; check API credentials and network.- API response errors during update will be surfaced as node execution errors; review the error message for details.
Resolution Tips:
- Verify API key validity and permissions.
- Ensure email addresses are correct and correspond to existing accounts.
- Validate all input fields conform to expected types and ranges.
- Use the "Continue On Fail" option in the node to handle partial failures gracefully.
