Frequently asked questions
How do I get my Lemlist API key?
Log in to your Lemlist account at app.lemlist.com. Click your profile icon (bottom left corner). Select Settings, then navigate to the Integrations tab. Look for the API section and click Generate to create a new API key. Copy the key immediately and save it securely — it is only shown once. Paste it into the configuration field below.
Can I check which leads opened my emails today?
Yes. Ask your AI agent 'Who opened my emails today?' and it returns a list of leads with their email addresses, campaign names, open timestamps, and total open counts — giving your SDR team warm lead signals in real-time.
Can my agent add new leads to an existing campaign?
Yes. Provide the lead's email, first name, and any custom variables, and your AI agent adds them directly to any active campaign — they'll automatically enter the sequence at step 1. Perfect for sales teams who find prospects and want to start outreach immediately.
What engagement metrics can I track?
Your AI agent can pull opens, clicks, replies, bounces, and unsubscribes per campaign — plus step-by-step analytics showing which emails in your sequence perform best. Perfect for optimizing subject lines, send times, and follow-up cadences.
Which VS Code version supports MCP?
MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.
How do I switch to Agent mode?
Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.
Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?
Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.
Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?
Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
