Overview
This node interacts with the Instantly API to retrieve information about email accounts. Specifically, the "Get Single Account" operation fetches details of a single email account by its email address. This is useful when you want to obtain detailed data about a specific user or contact in your Instantly account.
Common scenarios include:
- Fetching profile details for a known email address.
- Integrating Instantly account data into workflows that require user-specific information.
- Validating if an email account exists before performing further actions.
Example: You have an email address from a form submission and want to enrich it with additional data stored in Instantly by retrieving the full account details.
Properties
Name | Meaning |
---|---|
Email Account | The email account to retrieve. You can either select an email account from a searchable list or specify an email address manually (e.g., [email protected]). |
Output
The output JSON contains the detailed information of the requested email account as returned by the Instantly API endpoint /api/v2/accounts/{email}
. This typically includes fields such as email, first name, last name, and other account-related metadata.
No binary data output is produced by this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authenticating requests to the Instantly API.
- The node uses the Instantly API endpoints under
/api/v2/accounts
. - No additional environment variables are explicitly required beyond the API authentication setup.
Troubleshooting
- Limit Exceeded Error: When using operations that support limits (not applicable for "Get Single Account"), setting a limit above 100 will throw an error because the Instantly API restricts maximum results per request to 100.
- Account Not Found: If the specified email does not exist, the API may return an error or empty response. Ensure the email is correct and exists in your Instantly account.
- Authentication Errors: Verify that the API key credential is correctly configured and has sufficient permissions.
- Invalid Email Format: Providing an improperly formatted email string may cause the API call to fail. Use valid email addresses only.
