Instantly Core Workflow B: Warmup & Analytics Pipeline

Overview

Manage the email account warmup lifecycle and campaign analytics. Warmup builds sender reputation through controlled email exchanges across Instantly's 4.2M+ account network before you start cold outreach. This workflow covers enabling warmup, monitoring warmup health, pulling campaign analytics, and daily send tracking.

Prerequisites

• Completed instantly-install-auth setup
• Email accounts connected in Instantly (IMAP/SMTP or Google/Microsoft OAuth)
• API key with accounts:update and campaigns:read scopes

Instructions

Step 1: Enable Warmup on Email Accounts

import { instantly } from "./src/instantly";

// Enable warmup — triggers a background job
async function enableWarmup(emails: string[]) {
  const job = await instantly<{ id: string; status: string }>(
    "/accounts/warmup/enable",
    {
      method: "POST",
      body: JSON.stringify({ emails }),
    }
  );

  console.log(`Warmup enable job started: ${job.id} (status: ${job.status})`);

  // Poll background job until complete
  let result = job;
  while (result.status !== "completed" && result.status !== "failed") {
    await new Promise((r) => setTimeout(r, 2000));
    result = await instantly<{ id: string; status: string }>(
      `/background-jobs/${job.id}`
    );
  }

  console.log(`Warmup job ${result.status}`);
  return result;
}

// Enable for specific accounts
await enableWarmup(["outreach1@yourdomain.com", "outreach2@yourdomain.com"]);

// Or enable for ALL accounts at once
await instantly("/accounts/warmup/enable", {
  method: "POST",
  body: JSON.stringify({ include_all_emails: true }),
});

Step 2: Configure Warmup Settings

// PATCH account to tune warmup parameters
async function configureWarmup(email: string) {
  await instantly(`/accounts/${encodeURIComponent(email)}`, {
    method: "PATCH",
    body: JSON.stringify({
      warmup: {
        limit: 40,           // max warmup emails per day
        increment: "2",      // daily limit increment (0-4 or "disabled")
        advanced: {
          open_rate: 0.95,       // target open rate for warmup
          reply_rate: 0.1,       // target reply rate
          spam_save_rate: 0.02,  // rate of rescuing from spam
          read_emulation: true,  // simulate reading behavior
          weekday_only: true,    // warmup only on weekdays
          warm_ctd: false,       // custom tracking domain warmup
        },
      },
      daily_limit: 50,      // max campaign emails per day
      enable_slow_ramp: true,
    }),
  });

  console.log(`Warmup configured for ${email}`);
}

Step 3: Monitor Warmup Health

interface WarmupAnalytics {
  email: string;
  warmup_emails_sent: number;
  warmup_emails_received: number;
  warmup_emails_landed_inbox: number;
  warmup_emails_landed_spam: number;
  warmup_emails_saved_from_spam: number;
  warmup_health_score: number;
}

async function checkWarmupHealth(emails: string[]) {
  const analytics = await instantly<WarmupAnalytics[]>(
    "/accounts/warmup-analytics",
    {
      method: "POST",
      body: JSON.stringify({ emails }),
    }
  );

  console.log("\nWarmup Health Report:");
  for (const a of analytics) {
    const inboxRate = a.warmup_emails_landed_inbox /
      (a.warmup_emails_sent || 1) * 100;
    console.log(`${a.email}`);
    console.log(`  Sent: ${a.warmup_emails_sent} | Inbox: ${a.warmup_emails_landed_inbox} | Spam: ${a.warmup_emails_landed_spam}`);
    console.log(`  Inbox Rate: ${inboxRate.toFixed(1)}% | Health: ${a.warmup_health_score}`);
  }
  return analytics;
}

Step 4: Pull Campaign Analytics

// Aggregate analytics for one or more campaigns
async function getCampaignAnalytics(campaignIds: string[]) {
  const params = campaignIds.map((id) => `ids=${id}`).join("&");
  const data = await instantly<Array<{
    campaign_id: string;
    campaign_name: string;
    total_leads: number;
    leads_contacted: number;
    emails_sent: number;
    emails_opened: number;
    emails_replied: number;
    emails_bounced: number;
  }>>(`/campaigns/analytics?${params}`);

  for (const c of data) {
    const openRate = ((c.emails_opened / c.emails_sent) * 100).toFixed(1);
    const replyRate = ((c.emails_replied / c.emails_sent) * 100).toFixed(1);
    const bounceRate = ((c.emails_bounced / c.emails_sent) * 100).toFixed(1);

    console.log(`\n${c.campaign_name}`);
    console.log(`  Leads: ${c.total_leads} total, ${c.leads_contacted} contacted`);
    console.log(`  Open: ${openRate}% | Reply: ${replyRate}% | Bounce: ${bounceRate}%`);
  }
}

// Daily breakdown
async function getDailyAnalytics(campaignId: string) {
  const daily = await instantly<Array<{
    date: string; emails_sent: number; emails_opened: number; emails_replied: number;
  }>>(`/campaigns/analytics/daily?campaign_id=${campaignId}&start_date=2026-03-01&end_date=2026-03-31`);

  for (const day of daily) {
    console.log(`  ${day.date}: sent=${day.emails_sent} opened=${day.emails_opened} replied=${day.emails_replied}`);
  }
}

// Step-level analytics — which sequence step performs best
async function getStepAnalytics(campaignId: string) {
  const steps = await instantly<Array<{
    step_number: number; emails_sent: number; emails_opened: number; emails_replied: number;
  }>>(`/campaigns/analytics/steps?campaign_id=${campaignId}`);

  for (const s of steps) {
    console.log(`  Step ${s.step_number}: sent=${s.emails_sent} opened=${s.emails_opened} replied=${s.emails_replied}`);
  }
}

Step 5: Test Account Vitals

async function testAccountVitals(emails: string[]) {
  const vitals = await instantly<Array<{
    email: string; smtp_status: string; imap_status: string; dns_status: string;
  }>>("/accounts/test/vitals", {
    method: "POST",
    body: JSON.stringify({ accounts: emails }),
  });

  for (const v of vitals) {
    const ok = v.smtp_status === "ok" && v.imap_status === "ok";
    console.log(`${v.email}: SMTP=${v.smtp_status} IMAP=${v.imap_status} DNS=${v.dns_status} ${ok ? "HEALTHY" : "FIX NEEDED"}`);
  }
}
