Instantly Performance Tuning

Overview

Optimize Instantly API v2 integrations for speed and throughput. Key areas: caching analytics data, batching lead operations, concurrent request management, efficient pagination, and connection reuse. The email listing endpoint has a strict 20 req/min limit that requires special handling.

Prerequisites

• Completed instantly-install-auth setup
• Working Instantly integration
• Understanding of async patterns and caching strategies

Instructions

Step 1: Cache Analytics Data

Campaign analytics don't change every second — cache them for 5-15 minutes to avoid redundant API calls.

class InstantlyCache {
  private cache = new Map<string, { data: unknown; expiry: number }>();

  get<T>(key: string): T | null {
    const entry = this.cache.get(key);
    if (!entry || Date.now() > entry.expiry) {
      this.cache.delete(key);
      return null;
    }
    return entry.data as T;
  }

  set(key: string, data: unknown, ttlMs: number) {
    this..(key, { data, : .() + ttlMs });
  }
}

 cache =  ();

  () {
   cacheKey = ;
   cached = cache.<>(cacheKey);
   (cached)  cached;

   data =  instantly<>(
    
  );
  cache.(cacheKey, data,  *  * ); 
   data;
}


  () {
   cacheKey = ;
   cached = cache.<[]>(cacheKey);
   (cached)  cached;

   campaigns =  instantly<[]>();
  cache.(cacheKey, campaigns,  *  * ); 
   campaigns;
}
