Key Capabilities
Control SmartLead Campaigns via MCP Server
You run the whole campaign lifecycle from within your agent. Need to check performance? Just call `get_campaign_analytics` and get hard numbers on clicks, opens, and bounces. You can also control the flow by using `pause_campaign` or `resume_campaign`. This keeps everything running exactly how you want it, without opening a browser.
Manage Leads and Accounts
Don't waste time manually adding contacts. Feed new leads directly into SmartLead using the `add_lead` tool. Plus, list all existing targets with `list_leads`, so your agent always knows exactly who it's talking to. For account rotation, you can check available credentials by calling `list_email_accounts`. This ensures your outreach never hits a wall because you ran out of senders.
View and List Campaigns
Your agent needs to know what's running. Use `list_campaigns` to see all existing campaigns in SmartLead at a glance. Need details on one specific campaign? Running `get_campaign` fetches the full setup, letting your agent understand the entire structure. This gives your AI client complete visibility into the marketing-automation tools it's managing.
