Waalaxy platform help — LinkedIn + email outreach automation (Chrome extension) for solopreneurs and small teams: prospect lists from LinkedIn Search/Sales Navigator, 99+ ready-made sequences with auto follow-ups, an Email Finder, enrichment, a LinkedIn Inbox. Developer surface: REST API (base `https://developers.waalaxy.com`, `Bearer` key from CRM Sync settings) to list prospect lists + campaigns and import/enroll prospects (`POST /prospects/addProspectFromIntegration`, needs a LinkedIn URL + `origin`); plus Make/Zapier/n8n and HubSpot/Pipedrive sync — API gated to Advanced/Business plans. Use when importing prospects via the API, enrolling LinkedIn leads into a campaign automatically, wiring Waalaxy to HubSpot/Pipedrive/Make, your LinkedIn account got restricted or invites stopped sending, hitting the monthly invitation cap, or choosing Waalaxy vs lemlist/La Growth Machine. Do NOT use for outbound cadence strategy across tools (use /sales-cadence) or email deliverability/warmup (use /sales-deliverability).

Waalaxy Platform Help
Step 1 — Gather context
If references/learnings.md exists, read it first for accumulated platform knowledge.
What are you trying to do?
A) Import/enroll prospects via the API (POST /prospects/addProspectFromIntegration)
B) Read lists/campaigns via the API (getProspectLists, campaigns/getAll)
C) Wire Waalaxy to HubSpot/Pipedrive/Make/Zapier/n8n (no-code)
D) Fix a LinkedIn restriction / invites or messages not sending
E) Hit the monthly invitation cap or email-finder credit limit
F) Build/optimize a campaign sequence, or decide Waalaxy vs lemlist/LGM
API or no-code? Code → REST API (Bearer key from CRM Sync settings, Advanced/Business only). No endpoint → native HubSpot/Pipedrive, Make, Zapier, or n8n.
Skip-ahead rule: if the user's prompt already provides enough context, skip to Step 2.
Step 2 — Route or answer directly
If the question is about...
Route to...
Outbound sequence/cadence strategy across tools (channels, timing, copy)
/sales-cadence {question}
Email deliverability / warmup for the email channel
/sales-deliverability {question}
LinkedIn outreach strategy / social selling across tools
/sales-cadence {question}
Building/cleaning a prospect list across data sources
/sales-prospect-list {question}
Generic iPaaS wiring to a CRM/other app
/sales-integration {question}
When routing, give the exact command, e.g. "This is a strategy question — run: /sales-cadence design a LinkedIn + email multichannel sequence".
Step 3 — Waalaxy platform reference
Read references/platform-guide.md for the full reference — the prospect-list/campaign/prospect model (what's API vs UI), the per-account LinkedIn safety limits, plan tiers (API on Advanced/Business; cold email on Business), the Email Finder credit model, and quick-start recipes (import a prospect; list campaigns; sync to a CRM).
Read references/waalaxy-api-reference.md for the integration surface — base https://developers.waalaxy.com, Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY auth, the operations (GET /integrations/test, GET /prospectLists/getProspectLists, GET /campaigns/getAll, POST /prospects/addProspectFromIntegration), the import body schema (prospects[] with url + customProfile/customVariables, prospectListId, campaignId, origin), the RFC 7807 error shape, and native integrations.
Answer using only the relevant section. Don't dump the full reference.
Step 4 — Actionable guidance
Focus on the user's specific situation:
The write path is import-into-a-list (optionally enroll).POST /prospects/addProspectFromIntegration adds prospects to a prospectListId; pass a campaignId to also enroll them in a running campaign. Every prospect needs a LinkedIn url — Waalaxy is LinkedIn-identity-centric, not email-first.
origin is mandatory. Set origin.name to make, zapier, or n8n for native flows; a custom value shows up prefixed API- in the app so you can trace the source.
Get the IDs first. You need a real prospectListId (from getProspectLists) and, to auto-enroll, a campaignId (from campaigns/getAll, which only returns paused/running campaigns). Don't hardcode stale IDs.
API needs Advanced or Business. The API key only exists on Advanced (€49) and Business (€69); Pro/Free can't call it. Cold email sequences need Business. Confirm the tier before building.
Respect the LinkedIn safety caps. Monthly invite caps (Free 80 / Pro 300 / Advanced+Business 800) and Waalaxy's daily ramp exist to protect the account — it's a Chrome-extension tool, so over-aggressive sending is the #1 cause of restrictions.
It's not a sending API. There's no "send LinkedIn message" endpoint — you import + the campaign sequence executes through the connected LinkedIn account. Model your flow around import + enroll.
If you discover a gotcha, workaround, or tip not covered in references/learnings.md, append it there.
Gotchas
Best-effort from research (2026-06) — API base/endpoints from the official developer docs; pricing and limits from the pricing page + 2026 review roundups. Re-verify plan gates and caps in-account.
API is plan-gated. The Generate API key button only appears on Advanced/Business. On Pro/Free there's no key — the API simply isn't available.
Two base URLs float around. The intro page mentions api.waalaxy.com, but every endpoint reference resolves to https://developers.waalaxy.com — use that.
origin is required on import. Omitting origin.name rejects the request; native values are make/zapier/n8n, custom ones appear as API-….
Every prospect needs a LinkedIn URL.addProspectFromIntegration is keyed on the LinkedIn url; an email alone won't create a prospect.
Chrome extension = account risk. Waalaxy runs in your browser against your real LinkedIn session — exceeding the daily ramp or monthly cap is the top cause of restricted accounts. Warm up new accounts slowly.
Cold email is Business-only. Pro/Advanced get the Email Finder (credits) but automated cold-email sequences require the Business plan; multichannel = Business.
The LinkedIn Inbox is a paid add-on. Reply management (Inbox Waalaxy) is ~€20/user/mo on top of the base plan, not included.
Annual billing is upfront. The ~50% annual discount requires paying the full year up front — factor that into "real cost."

Examples
Example 1: Import a LinkedIn lead into a campaign via the API (developer/automation)
User says: "When a lead signs up in my app, how do I push their LinkedIn profile into a Waalaxy campaign automatically?"
Skill does: Walks Recipe 1 — first GET /prospectLists/getProspectLists and GET /campaigns/getAll to grab a prospectListId and campaignId, then POST https://developers.waalaxy.com/prospects/addProspectFromIntegration with Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY, a prospects[] entry containing the LinkedIn url (+ optional customProfile/customVariables), the prospectListId, the campaignId, and a required origin.name. Notes the API needs the Advanced/Business plan and that the campaign sequence does the actual sending.
Result: New app signups flow straight into the right LinkedIn sequence.
Example 2: My LinkedIn account got restricted
User says: "I started a Waalaxy campaign and LinkedIn restricted my account within a day."
Skill does: Explains that Waalaxy is a Chrome-extension tool acting on the real LinkedIn session, so over-aggressive volume trips LinkedIn's limits. Recommends pausing campaigns, respecting the monthly invite cap (Free 80 / Pro 300 / Advanced+Business 800) and Waalaxy's daily ramp, warming a new/low-activity account slowly, and personalizing connection notes. Routes the broader strategy: "run: /sales-cadence recover a restricted LinkedIn account and set safe daily limits."
Result: A safer sending posture and a recovery plan.
Example 3: Waalaxy vs lemlist vs La Growth Machine
User says: "I'm a solo founder — should I use Waalaxy, lemlist, or La Growth Machine for LinkedIn outreach?"
Skill does: Frames the split — Waalaxy is the simplest/cheapest LinkedIn-first tool (Chrome extension, ready-made sequences, Free tier, cold email only on Business), lemlist is email-first with a built-in lead DB and warmup, LGM is cloud-based multichannel with stronger safety. Recommends Waalaxy for a budget LinkedIn-led motion, then routes the decision: "run: /sales-cadence choose a LinkedIn-first outbound tool for a solo founder."
Result: A grounded tool choice based on channel emphasis and budget.
Troubleshooting
My API calls return 401 / there's no API key in settings
Symptom: Requests to developers.waalaxy.com are rejected, or you can't find where to generate a key.
Cause: The API is gated to Advanced/Business, or the Authorization: Bearer header is missing/wrong.
Solution: Confirm you're on Advanced or Business, open CRM Sync settings → Generate API key (shown once — store it securely), and send Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY on every request. Test with GET /integrations/test (returns true) before anything else.
Imported prospects don't get worked / don't enter the campaign
Symptom: addProspectFromIntegration succeeds but no outreach happens.
Cause: No campaignId was passed (import only lands them in a list), the campaign isn't paused/running, the prospect was a duplicate, or origin was missing.
Solution: Pass a valid campaignId from campaigns/getAll (only paused/running campaigns are returned), include the required origin.name, and check the response importCode/addToCampaignCode per prospect (duplicated_prospect means it already existed). Use addExistingProspectInCampaign to enroll prospects already in your CRM.
Invites/messages stopped sending mid-campaign
Symptom: A campaign stalls and no new actions fire.
Cause: You hit the monthly invitation cap, the daily ramp limit, the LinkedIn account is restricted, or the Chrome extension/computer was offline (extension-based execution needs the browser running).
Solution: Check remaining monthly invites for your plan, ensure the extension is installed and LinkedIn is logged in, and look for a LinkedIn restriction banner. For volume/timing strategy use /sales-cadence; for restriction recovery use /sales-cadence.
