CurviatexInstantly
Run LinkedIn next to your Instantly email sequences. Connect the two with Curviate’s webhooks and API, then build the flow you need.
What is Instantly?
Instantly is a cold email platform for sending outreach campaigns at scale, with unlimited sending accounts, warm-up and a lead database. Agencies, sales teams and founders use it.
Visit instantly.aiHow Instantly works with Curviate
Run email in Instantly and LinkedIn in Curviate as one sequence: add people to a Motion when an email step is done, and pause email when they reply on LinkedIn. Connect the two through n8n, Make or Zapier.

Three flows teams set up first. Each one takes a few minutes.
LinkedIn after the email step
When a lead finishes an email step in Instantly, they are added to a Motion for a LinkedIn touch.
POST /v1/motions/…/contacts
A LinkedIn reply pauses email
When a lead replies on LinkedIn, your flow finds them in Instantly by their LinkedIn URL and pauses them.
message.received
Accepted invite, warmer email
When someone accepts your invitation, Instantly moves them to a warmer email sequence.

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.

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 Instantly
Add the Instantly 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

Trigger on a change in Instantly, then add each person to Curviate and start your Motion.
# add the person as a contact

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 Instantly, 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.
