instantly.addLead — Instantly operation
Direct access to Instantly's own API, priced in dollars on your Orange Slice key. Everything we expose, with prices: https://orangeslice.ai/llms.txt
Add a prospect to an Instantly campaign.
Price
$0.002 per call
Billed on every call, including one that returns nothing.
Orange Slice holds the vendor account, so there is nothing to buy and no key to paste. You connect your sending domains once; the price above is all you pay.
Requires a connected account
This runs from your sending domains. Cold email needs warmed domains with a sending history. We buy and warm yours inside our Instantly workspace, so there is no tool to buy and no key to paste.
If the account is not connected the call returns HTTP 428 with a
connect_url, and the CLI exits 9. That is not an authentication failure
and no retry will clear it: a person has to open the link and approve access.
