Email the rep when enrichment finds no phone, so they follow up by email
When an enrichment run finishes without a phone number, Master Inbox emails the rep the lead and thread link, so the lead is worked by email instead of waiting for a number.
Why teams run it
No lead is held back waiting for a number that will not come.
Set it up in Master Inbox
- In Master Inbox, open Settings, then Workflows, and click Add a workflow.
- Name it Email the rep when enrichment finds no phone, so they follow up by email.
- Set the trigger to Enrichment Completed and choose Any enrichment run.
- Add a condition: Phone number is empty.
- Add the action Send an email notification: Email the rep: no phone found, reply by email, with the thread link.
- Save the workflow and switch it to Active.
Or create it with the API
Everything in the workflow builder is also in the Master Inbox API. This request creates the same workflow. Replace the example ids with your own label, list and campaign ids from GET /workflows/filter-fields. This workflow also uses conditions: add them under trigger_config.conditions, as shown on the conditions page.
curl -X POST https://api.masterinbox.com/api/api-webhook/v1/api/workflows/create-workflow \

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: "Email the rep when enrichment finds no phone, so they follow up by email". 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
Should I turn off Retry on condition failure?
Yes, when you run this alongside a phone found workflow, so the two opposite conditions do not wait on each other.
Can I log these to a sheet?
Yes. Add a webhook action to Google Sheets through Zapier, Make or n8n.
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 Revenue plan. Every plan has unlimited users and starts with a free 7-day POC.
