Get Sequences API

Returns outreach sequence templates: an ordered list of steps with message types and wait times between steps.

Use this to get a recommended sequence, or to display options to users. Users can state their campaign objective, preferred sequence length and cadence, in order to receive a recommended sequence or set of sequences.

List all sequences (no query params) or filter by sequence length, campaign objective, cadence profile, and whether the sequence is for saturated markets (includes a connection request) or not.

Endpoint

MethodPath
GET/sequences/get_sequences

Query parameters (all optional)

ParameterTypeDescription
sequence_lengthstringshort (1-2 steps), medium (3 steps), or long (4-5 steps).
campaign_objectivestringbrand_awareness, event_attendance, or meeting.
cadence_profilestringrapid (1-2 weeks), normal (2-4 weeks), or long_term (2-3 months).
saturated_marketsstringtrue or false. When true, sequences include a connection request step; when false, they do not.

Behavior

  • No filter params sent — Response includes all sequences (no filtering).
  • One or more filter params sent — Response is filtered by all four dimensions. For any param you omit or set to the literal value default, the server uses the default below.

Default values

Used when a param is omitted or set to default:

ParameterDefault value
sequence_lengthmedium
campaign_objectivemeeting
cadence_profilenormal
saturated_marketsfalse

Allowed values

ParameterAllowed values
sequence_lengthshort (1-2 steps), medium (3 steps), long (4-5 steps)
campaign_objectivebrand_awareness, event_attendance, meeting
cadence_profilerapid (1-2 weeks), normal (2-4 weeks), long_term (2-3 months)
saturated_marketstrue (includes connection request step), false (no connection request)

Example requests

Six example requests: all sequences, all defaults, short only, saturated medium/meeting/normal, long/brand_awareness/long_term/unsaturated, and a mix of explicit and default.

Response

Success: 200 OK

Each sequence in the response contains only id and steps. The id is built from the four parameters so it always encodes sequence length, campaign objective, cadence profile, and saturated markets.

Error response examples

Unauthorized (401), Internal Server Error (500):

Example response (200 OK)

{
  "sequences": [
    {
      "id": "medium_meeting_normal_false",
      "steps": [
        {
          "step": 1,
          "message_type": "stage_ambition",
          "wait_time_after": "4d 0h"
        },
        {
          "step": 2,
          "message_type": "first_follow_up",
          "wait_time_after": "0d 0h"
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

The id in each sequence can be parsed to recover the four dimensions: order is sequence_length, campaign_objective, cadence_profile, saturated_markets (last segment is true or false).

Response fields

FieldDescription
sequencesArray of sequence objects. Empty if no sequences match the filters.
sequences[].idIdentifier built from the four parameters: sequence_length_campaign_objective_cadence_profile_saturated_markets (e.g. short_brand_awareness_rapid_true).
sequences[].stepsOrdered list of steps.
sequences[].steps[].step1-based step number.
sequences[].steps[].message_typeOne of: connection_request, share_material, stage_ambition, hiring_activity, first_follow_up.
sequences[].steps[].wait_time_afterDelay before the next step as "Xd Yh" (e.g. "0d 6h", "1d 0h"). Last step is typically "0d 0h".
