Instantly Data Handling
Overview
Manage leads, lead lists, block lists, and regulatory compliance in Instantly API v2. Covers lead CRUD operations, list management, bulk import patterns, unsubscribe handling, GDPR right-to-deletion, CAN-SPAM compliance, and block list automation. Cold email has specific legal requirements — this skill ensures your integrations are compliant.
Prerequisites
Completed instantly-install-auth setup
API key with leads:all scope
Understanding of CAN-SPAM / GDPR requirements for cold outreach
Instructions
Step 1: Lead List Management
import { InstantlyClient } from "./src/instantly/client" ;
const client = new InstantlyClient ();
async function createLeadList (name : string const list = await client.request <{ id : string ; name : string }>("/lead-lists" , {
method : "POST" ,
body : JSON .stringify ({
name,
has_enrichment_task : false ,
}),
});
console .log (`Created list: ${list.name} (${list.id} )` );
return list;
}
async function getLeadLists
return
request
Array
id
string
name
string
timestamp_created
string
"/lead-lists?limit=50"
async
function
deleteLeadList
listId : string
await
request
`/lead-lists/${listId} `
method
"DELETE"
Step 2: Lead Import with Validation interface LeadImport {
email : string ;
first_name ?: string ;
last_name ?: string ;
company_name ?: string ;
website ?: string ;
phone ?: string ;
custom_variables ?: Record <string , string >;
}
async function importLeads (
campaignId : string ,
leads : LeadImport [],
options = { skipDuplicates: true , verifyEmails: true }
) {
const results = { added : 0 , skipped : 0 , failed : 0 , errors : [] as string [] };
for (const lead of leads) {
try {
if (!lead.email || !/^[^\s@]+@[^\s@]+\.[^\s@]+$/ .test (lead.email )) {
results.failed ++;
results.errors .push (`Invalid email: ${lead.email} ` );
continue ;
}
const domain = lead.email .split ("@" )[1 ];
if (BLOCKED_PATTERNS .some ((p ) => domain.includes (p))) {
results.skipped ++;
continue ;
}
await client.request ("/leads" , {
method : "POST" ,
body : JSON .stringify ({
campaign : campaignId,
email : lead.email ,
first_name : lead.first_name ,
last_name : lead.last_name ,
company_name : lead.company_name ,
website : lead.website ,
phone : lead.phone ,
custom_variables : lead.custom_variables ,
skip_if_in_workspace : options.skipDuplicates ,
skip_if_in_campaign : true ,
verify_leads_on_import : options.verifyEmails ,
}),
});
results.added ++;
} catch (e : any ) {
results.failed ++;
results.errors .push (`${lead.email} : ${e.message} ` );
}
}
console .log (`Import: ${results.added} added, ${results.skipped} skipped, ${results.failed} failed` );
return results;
}
const BLOCKED_PATTERNS = [
"noreply" , "no-reply" , "donotreply" ,
"info@" , "admin@" , "support@" , "help@" , "abuse@" ,
"postmaster@" , "webmaster@" , "hostmaster@" ,
];
Step 3: Lead Operations (Move, Update, Delete)
async function moveLeads (opts : {
fromCampaign?: string ;
fromList?: string ;
toCampaign?: string ;
toList?: string ;
limit?: number ;
}return client.request ("/leads/move" , {
method : "POST" ,
body : JSON .stringify ({
in_campaign : opts.fromCampaign ,
in_list : opts.fromList ,
to_campaign_id : opts.toCampaign ,
to_list_id : opts.toList ,
limit : opts.limit || 1000 ,
check_duplicates : true ,
}),
});
}
async function updateLeadInterest (
email : string ,
campaignId : string ,
status : "interested" | "not_interested" | "meeting_booked" | "closed"
) {
const interestMap : Record <string , number > = {
interested : 1 ,
not_interested : -1 ,
meeting_booked : 2 ,
closed : 3 ,
};
await client.request ("/leads/update-interest-status" , {
method : "POST" ,
body : JSON .stringify ({
lead_email : email,
campaign_id : campaignId,
interest_value : interestMap[status],
}),
});
}
async function updateLead (leadId : string , data : Partial <LeadImport >await client.request (`/leads/${leadId} ` , {
method : "PATCH" ,
body : JSON .stringify (data),
});
}
async function deleteLeadsFromCampaign (campaignId : string , status ?: number await client.request ("/leads" , {
method : "DELETE" ,
body : JSON .stringify ({
campaign_id : campaignId,
status,
}),
});
}
Step 4: Block List Management
async function addToBlockList (entries : string []for (const entry of entries) {
await client.request ("/block-lists-entries" , {
method : "POST" ,
body : JSON .stringify ({ bl_value : entry }),
});
}
await client.request ("/block-lists-entries/bulk-create" , {
method : "POST" ,
body : JSON .stringify ({ entries }),
});
}
async function seedBlockList (const standardBlocks = [
"yourdomain.com" ,
"yourcompany.com" ,
"competitor1.com" ,
"competitor2.com" ,
"gmail.com" ,
"yahoo.com" ,
"hotmail.com" ,
"outlook.com" ,
"spamtrap.com" ,
];
await addToBlockList (standardBlocks);
console .log (`Seeded block list with ${standardBlocks.length} entries` );
}
async function auditBlockList (const entries = await client.request <Array <{
id : string ; bl_value : string ;
}>>("/block-lists-entries?limit=100" );
console .log (`Block list: ${entries.length} entries` );
for (const e of entries) {
console .log (` ${e.bl_value} ` );
}
}
Step 5: GDPR / CAN-SPAM Compliance
async function handleDeletionRequest (email : string console .log (`Processing GDPR deletion request for: ${email} ` );
const campaigns = await client.request <Array <{ id : string }>>(
`/campaigns/search-by-contact?search=${encodeURIComponent (email)} `
);
for (const campaign of campaigns) {
const leads = await client.leads .list ({ campaign : campaign.id });
const matchingLead = leads.find ((l ) => l.email === email);
if (matchingLead) {
await client.leads .delete (matchingLead.id );
console .log (` Deleted from campaign ${campaign.id} ` );
}
}
await addToBlockList ([email]);
console .log (` Added to block list` );
console .log (` Deletion complete. Log this for GDPR records.` );
}
async function handleUnsubscribe (email : string await addToBlockList ([email]);
console .log (`Unsubscribe processed: ${email} added to global block list` );
}
async function verifyEmail (email : string await client.request ("/email-verification" , {
method : "POST" ,
body : JSON .stringify ({
email,
webhook_url : "https://api.yourapp.com/webhooks/verification" ,
}),
});
const result = await client.request <{
email : string ; status : string ; reason : string ;
}>(`/email-verification/${encodeURIComponent (email)} ` );
return result;
}
