CurviatexGmail
Get LinkedIn replies in your Gmail inbox. Connect the two with Curviate’s webhooks and API, then build the flow you need.
What is Gmail?
Gmail is Google's email service, available on the web and mobile. Individuals and organizations use it for personal and work email, often through Google Workspace.

Bring LinkedIn into the inbox you already live in: get replies and accepted invitations as emails, and follow up by email when LinkedIn goes quiet. Connect the two through n8n, Make or Zapier.

Three flows teams set up first. Each one takes a few minutes.
LinkedIn replies in your inbox
Each LinkedIn reply arrives as an email with the message and a link to the sender.
message.received
Accepted invite, a reminder
When someone accepts your invitation, an email reminds you to follow up while it is fresh.
connection.acceptedA daily summary
Every morning, one email lists the Motions that finished and how.
enrollment.finishedSet up Gmail with Curviate
Everything runs on two things Curviate gives every account: signed webhooks out and a REST API in.
- 1
Copy your Curviate API key
In the Curviate dashboard, open Settings, then API & Webhooks, and copy your key.
# keep it in your tool's credentials, never in plain text

Connect Gmail to your automation
Sign in to Gmail inside n8n, Make or Zapier, or create an API key in Gmail if you write your own code.

Send Curviate events to it
Point a Curviate webhook at an n8n, Make or Zapier webhook trigger, or at your own endpoint. Each webhook covers one source:
messagingfor replies,userfor accepted invitations,motionfor Motion outcomes,account_statusfor account alerts.curl https://api.curviate.com/v1/webhooks \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $CURVIATE_API_KEY" \
-d '{
"source": "messaging",
"events": ["message.received"],
"account_ids": ["acc_…"],
"request_url": "https://hooks.zapier.com/hooks/catch/…"
}' - 4
Write to Gmail
Add the Gmail step your tool offers, such as creating or updating a lead, and map the fields from the Curviate event.
# what your tool receives
{ "event": "connection.accepted",
"data": { "account_id": "acc_…", "occurred_at": "2026-10-17T09:12:00Z", … } } - 5
Send Gmail leads into a Motion
Trigger on a change in Gmail, then add each person to Curviate and start your Motion.
# add the person as a contact
POST https://api.curviate.com/v1/contacts
{ "linkedin_url": "linkedin.com/in/lenaweber", "first_name": "Lena" }
# start your Motion for them
POST https://api.curviate.com/v1/motions/mot_…/contacts

Can LinkedIn and email work as one sequence?
Yes. Events from each side move the lead along on the other, so every person gets one conversation, not two.
What happens when someone replies on LinkedIn?
Your flow pauses them in Gmail, and by default the Motion stops its follow-ups for that person too.
Do both tools need the same lead list?
No. Curviate recognises people by their LinkedIn profile, so a lead only needs a LinkedIn URL.
