Instantly

Overview

This node interacts with the Instantly API to manage marketing campaigns, leads, accounts, and analytics. Specifically, for the Campaign - Delete operation, it deletes a specified campaign from the Instantly platform.

Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include:

• Automating cleanup of outdated or completed marketing campaigns.
• Integrating campaign management into broader workflows that create, update, and delete campaigns dynamically.
• Managing campaigns programmatically without manual intervention in the Instantly dashboard.

Example use case:

• A marketing automation workflow that removes campaigns older than a certain date to keep the system tidy and focused on active campaigns.

Properties

The "Campaign" property supports two modes:

• From List: Select a campaign from a dropdown list populated by fetching campaigns via the API.
• By ID: Enter the unique identifier of the campaign manually.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the result of the delete operation. Typically, this will be an object confirming the deletion or containing any relevant response data from the Instantly API.

If the operation fails and "Continue On Fail" is enabled, the output will contain an error message in JSON format for the failed item.

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 REST API endpoints under /api/v2/campaigns.
• No additional environment variables are required beyond the API authentication setup.

Troubleshooting

• Error: Limit cannot exceed 100
  This error occurs if a limit parameter exceeds the Instantly API maximum of 100 when fetching multiple items (not directly related to delete but part of the node). To fix, reduce the limit to 100 or less.

• Invalid Campaign ID
  If the campaign ID provided does not exist or is malformed, the API will return an error. Verify the campaign ID is correct and exists in your Instantly account.

• API Authentication Errors
  Ensure the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions to delete campaigns.

• Network or API Downtime
  Temporary network issues or Instantly API downtime may cause failures. Retry after some time or check Instantly status.
