FAQPage Schema
How do I automate cold email campaigns at scale?

Automate cold email campaigns by using the Instantly API to create and launch campaigns with daily sending limits, manage leads in bulk, and track performance metrics. The Skill handles campaign creation, lead management, and analytics retrieval via authenticated API calls.

Can I add and update leads across multiple campaigns?

Yes, the Instantly API lets you add, list, and update leads within campaigns. You can manage lead data across multiple campaigns simultaneously using the leads endpoint with your API key and Bearer token authentication.

What authentication do I need to use the Instantly API?

You need an API key and Bearer token for the Instantly API. Pass the Bearer token in the Authorization header when making requests to https://api.instantly.ai/api/v2, and store your API key as an environment variable for secure access.

How do I track campaign performance and results?

Retrieve campaign performance metrics using the analytics scope of the Instantly API. Query the v2 endpoint to pull data on sends, opens, replies, and other engagement metrics for each campaign.

Can I pause or stop campaigns once they're running?

Yes, the Skill supports pausing campaigns through the Instantly API. After launching a campaign, you can pause it at any time using the campaigns endpoint without losing lead or performance data.

Do I need any additional tools beyond an API key to get started?

You need an API key, Bearer token, and a bash environment with curl and jq to execute requests. No additional dependencies or components are required—the Skill works directly with the Instantly API v2 endpoint.
