Enroll Not now replies in an Instantly nurture subsequence

When a reply is labeled Not now, Master Inbox adds the lead to an Instantly nurture subsequence and sets a 90-day reminder, so not right now becomes pipeline later.

Or ask Claude, ChatGPT or Grok to build it

Our workflow guide is written for AI agents to read. Give your assistant your API key and this prompt:

Read https://app.masterinbox.com/public-workflow-api.md and use my Master Inbox API key to create this workflow: "Enroll Not now replies in an Instantly nurture subsequence". First call GET /workflows/filter-fields and look up my label, list and channel ids, then create the workflow and tell me what you set up.

Questions

Why a subsequence?

It keeps the follow-up in the same campaign and mailbox the prospect already knows.

What does the 90-day reminder do?

Pair it with a Due Reminder workflow that marks the thread unread and moves it to Follow up today, so a person checks in.

Can I build this workflow through the API?

Yes. Send the create-workflow request shown on this page with your Master Inbox API key. The API checks the payload first and lists every problem by field if anything is off.

Which plan includes this?

This workflow works on the Team plan. Every plan has unlimited users and starts with a free 7-day POC.
