Manage LinkedIn replies in HotHawk. Connect the two with Curviate’s webhooks and API, then build the flow you need.
What is HotHawk?
HotHawk is a cold email sequencer that sends multi-step campaigns and collects all replies in a shared master inbox that routes them to team members. Sales teams and agencies use it.

Everything runs on two things Curviate gives every account: signed webhooks out and a REST API in.

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:

-H "Authorization: Bearer $CURVIATE_API_KEY" \

Write to HotHawk
Add the HotHawk step your tool offers, such as creating or updating a message, 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
Check the signature
Every delivery carries a
Curviate-Signatureheader: an HMAC-SHA256 of the timestamp and the raw body, made with your webhook’s secret. Compare it before you act, and drop anything older than five minutes.Curviate-Signature: t=1792230000,v1=5f2c9a…e81b
# expected = HMAC_SHA256(secret, t + "." + raw_body)

Can each rep get only their own replies?
Yes. A webhook covers the accounts you pick, so each rep or team can have their own place in HotHawk.
Which events can I send to HotHawk?
Messages, accepted invitations, published posts, account status changes and every step of a Motion.
Do I need a developer?
No. n8n, Make and Zapier all have HotHawk steps, so you can connect the two without code.
