Connecting your SmartLead sequencer inside InboxKit allows you to seamlessly export your newly created mailboxes directly into SmartLead for your outreach campaigns. This guide walks you through the full connection process, how to enable Auto Export, and how to avoid common export issues.
Follow these steps to set up your SmartLead sequencer:
From the left sidebar, click Sequencers.
Then click + Add Sequencer.
On the platform list, select SmartLead.
You will be asked to enter:
Email → your SmartLead login email
Password → the same password you use to log into SmartLead
Consent URL (Optional) → only required if SmartLead specifically provides one
Once filled, click Connect SmartLead.
InboxKit will verify your credentials and complete the connection.
Turning on Auto Export ensures that:
Every time you create & activate new mailboxes in InboxKit,
They will be automatically exported to your SmartLead account,
Without needing to manually trigger an export job.
This helps keep SmartLead synced with InboxKit at all times.
If Auto Export is off or you want to export manually:
Go to Exports in InboxKit.
Click Create Export.
Select SmartLead from the sequencer list.
Choose the mailboxes you want to export.
Click Create Export Job.
InboxKit will push selected mailboxes to SmartLead within a few minutes.
If an export fails, it’s usually due to one of the following reasons:
Make sure your SmartLead email and password match exactly with your SmartLead account.
Some SmartLead setups may require a workspace-specific environment.
SmartLead must have an active plan to allow API-based mailbox imports.
If 2FA is turned on inside SmartLead, connection attempts may fail.
Disable 2FA and try again.
Once these points are corrected, exports will complete normally.
You’re all set — SmartLead is now connected to InboxKit, and your mailboxes can sync smoothly using manual or Auto Export.
