Voraussetzungen

Die vollständige Setup-Anleitung ist in den Connector eingebaut (im Store sichtbar, wenn du den Connector auswählst). Benötigte Umgebungsvariablen für diesen Connector:

INSTANTLY_API_KEY

Schritt 1 — Zugangsdaten holen

instantly.ai).

Setup:

  1. Sign in to https://app.instantly.ai → bottom-left avatar → Settings → Integrations → API → Generate New API Key.
  2. Set INSTANTLY_API_KEY.

Authentication: Authorization: Bearer ${INSTANTLY_API_KEY}.

Lead state: leads have status (Active, Paused, Completed, Unsubscribed, Bounced, Skipped, Replied). Adding a lead with skip_if_in_workspace=true deduplicates.

Campaigns: sequence of email steps. Adding a lead to a campaign enrolls it in the sequence.

Accounts (sending mailboxes): each campaign sends from one or more connected mailboxes — managed in UI.

Pagination: ?starting_after=lead_id cursor.

…(continued in the in-app connector instructions)

Schritt 2 — Adapter installieren

git clone https://github.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp.git
cd anythingmcp && docker compose up -d

Schritt 3 — Connector in Cursor hinzufügen

Cursor liest MCP-Server aus ~/.cursor/mcp.json. Füge diesen Eintrag hinzu:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "anythingmcp": {
      "url": "https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_MCP_API_KEY" }
    }
  }
}
  1. Hole deinen MCP API Key aus AnythingMCP → Profil → MCP API Keys → Neuer Key.
  2. Speichern und Cursor neu starten.
  3. Cursor → Einstellungen → MCP öffnen und prüfen, ob Instantly als "Connected" gelistet ist.
  4. Chatten — alle Instantly-Tools sind aufrufbar.
