Leadgenius API

LeadGenius Pro API — Skill Reference

This skill provides a comprehensive interface for interacting with the LeadGenius Pro API v1.1.

Base URL: https://last.leadgenius.app/api Full Reference: See references/api_reference.md

Authentication

LeadGenius supports three authentication methods, tried in order by getAuthContext:

Getting a JWT Token

# Option 1: Use the test/auth script
python3 scripts/auth.py --email your@email.com

# Option 2: Direct API call
curl -X POST https://last.leadgenius.app/api/auth \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"username": "your@email.com", "password": "YourPassword"}'

Response:

{
  "success": true,
  "tokens": {
    "accessToken": "eyJra...",
    "idToken": "eyJra...",
    "refreshToken": "eyJj...",
    "expiresIn": 3600
  }
}

Use tokens.accessToken as the Bearer token for all subsequent API calls. Tokens expire after 1 hour.

Token Refresh

When your access token expires, use the refresh token to get a new one without re-authenticating:

curl -X POST https://last.leadgenius.app/api/auth/refresh \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"refreshToken": "<your-refresh-token>"}'

Response:

{
  "success": true,
  "tokens": {
    "accessToken": "eyJra...",
    "idToken": "eyJra...",
    "refreshToken": "eyJj...",
    "expiresIn": 3600
  }
}

Python Example:

import requests
import json
import time

def refresh_token(refresh_token):
    response = requests.post(
        "https://last.leadgenius.app/api/auth/refresh",
        json={"refreshToken": refresh_token}
    )
    return response.json()

def get_valid_token(auth_file="~/.leadgenius_auth.json"):
    with open(auth_file, 'r') as f:
        auth = json.load(f)

    # Check if token is expired (simple check)
    # In production, decode JWT and check exp claim
    try:
        # Make a test request
        response = requests.get(
            "https://last.leadgenius.app/api/clients",
            headers={"Authorization": f"Bearer {auth['token']}"}
        )
        if response.status_code == 401:
            # Token expired, refresh it
            new_tokens = refresh_token(auth['refresh_token'])
            auth['token'] = new_tokens['tokens']['accessToken']
            with open(auth_file, 'w') as f:
                json.dump(auth, f)
        return auth['token']
    except:
        return auth['token']

Using Bearer JWT in API Calls

# All API calls use the accessToken in the Authorization header
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer <accessToken>" \
     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     https://last.leadgenius.app/api/clients

The getAuthContext middleware (src/utils/apiAuthHelper.ts) decodes the JWT, extracts the sub claim as the owner, and resolves the company_id for multi-tenant isolation — all automatically.

Auth Credentials Storage

Tokens are saved to ~/.leadgenius_auth.json by the auth scripts:

{
  "token": "<accessToken>",
  "id_token": "<idToken>",
  "refresh_token": "<refreshToken>",
  "email": "your@email.com",
  "user_id": "<uuid-user-id>",
  "base_url": "https://last.leadgenius.app"
}

Core Workflows (E2E Tested ✅)

The following operations have been validated end-to-end with the test suite.

1. Client Management ✅

All client operations are scoped by company_id (resolved from JWT).

Create Client Payload

{
  "clientName": "Acme Corp",
  "companyURL": "https://acme.com",
  "description": "Enterprise client for B2B leads"
}

Response (201):

{
  "success": true,
  "client": {
    "id": "edd5c738-...",
    "client_id": "acme-corp",
    "clientName": "Acme Corp",
    "companyURL": "https://acme.com",
    "description": "Enterprise client for B2B leads",
    "owner": "4428a4f8-...",
    "company_id": "company-177..."
  }
}

⚠️ CRITICAL — Slug vs UUID ("Invisible Leads" Bug) The client record has TWO identifiers:

• id — The internal DynamoDB UUID (e.g. edd5c738-...). Used only for update/delete of the client record itself.
• client_id — The human-readable slug (e.g. acme-corp, historic-leads). Used for all lead operations.

ALWAYS use the slug (client_id) when creating or querying leads. The UI queries leads by slug. If you mistakenly use the UUID id as the lead's client_id, the leads will exist in the database but will be invisible in the UI.

Verification: GET /api/leads?client_id=<slug>&limit=1 — if it returns leads, the UI will show them too.

Update Client Payload

{
  "id": "<dynamodb-id>",
  "clientName": "Updated Name",
  "description": "Updated description"
}

⚠️ Purge Timeout Warning: The purge=true flag on client deletion will time out if the client has more than ~1,000 leads. For large datasets, delete leads first using a concurrent batch deletion script (batches of 50 IDs), then delete the client record.

2. Lead Management ✅

Leads are stored as EnrichLeads in DynamoDB and are scoped by client_id and company_id.

🚨 CRITICAL — Batch POST May Not Persist: The batch endpoint (POST /api/leads with {"leads": [...]}) returns 201 Created and reports a correct created count, but leads may not be saved to the database. This was discovered during production HubSpot imports (Feb 2026). For reliable imports, always POST leads individually (single object payload). Single-lead POST is confirmed 100% reliable. See HUBSPOT_TO_LEADGENIUS.md Bug #2 for details.

💡 Batch Size Recommendation: If using batch POST, use a batch size of 50 leads per request. For maximum reliability, prefer single-lead POST with a 150ms delay between requests (~400 leads/min).

Create Single Lead Payload

{
  "client_id": "acme-corp",
  "firstName": "John",
  "lastName": "Smith",
  "email": "john.smith@example.com",
  "companyName": "Acme Corp",
  "companyDomain": "acme.com",
  "title": "VP Engineering",
  "linkedinUrl": "https://linkedin.com/in/johnsmith"
}

⚠️ The client_id here is the slug (e.g. acme-corp), NOT the DynamoDB UUID. See the Slug vs UUID warning above.

Create Batch Leads Payload

{
  "leads": [
    {
      "client_id": "acme-corp",
      "firstName": "Jane",
      "lastName": "Doe",
      "email": "jane@example.com",
      "companyName": "BatchCorp",
      "title": "CTO"
    },
    {
      "client_id": "acme-corp",
      "firstName": "Bob",
      "lastName": "Wilson",
      "email": "bob@example.com",
      "companyName": "BatchCorp",
      "title": "VP Sales"
    }
  ]
}

Batch Response (201):

{
  "success": true,
  "created": 2,
  "skipped": []
}

Update Single Lead Payload

{
  "id": "<lead-dynamodb-id>",
  "title": "Senior VP Engineering",
  "notes": "Updated via API"
}

Batch Update Payload

{
  "leads": [
    { "id": "<id-1>", "notes": "Updated lead 1" },
    { "id": "<id-2>", "notes": "Updated lead 2" }
  ]
}

Batch Delete Payload (body)

{
  "ids": ["<id-1>", "<id-2>"]
}

List Leads Query Parameters

• client_id (required) — The slug from the Client record (not the DynamoDB id)
• limit — 1 to 1000 (default: 100)
• nextToken — Pagination token

AI Fields & the Notes Catch-All Pattern

Structured AI fields (aiLeadScore, aiQualification, etc.) are persisted in the backend but may not be visible in the standard LeadGenius UI table view. To guarantee visibility and searchability, aggregate all analytical data into the notes field using Markdown formatting:

# Recommended: Aggregate AI fields into Notes for visibility
lead["notes"] = f"""
## 🎯 AI SCORE: {row['aiLeadScore']} ({row['leadScore']}/100)

### 🧐 JUSTIFICATION
{row['justification']}

### 💡 STRATEGIC RECOMMENDATIONS
{row['recommendations']}

### 📝 SDR SYNTHESIS
{row['sdr_synthesis']}
""".strip()

This ensures all critical data is immediately visible in the lead detail view and searchable across the UI.

3. Bulk Data Extraction

High-volume extraction bypasses standard auth for raw GSI performance.

Bulk List Query Parameters

• companyId (required) — Multi-tenant isolation
• clientId (optional) — Filter by client. Use ALL/DEFAULT or omit for all
• limit (optional) — Default 1000, max 5000
• nextToken (optional) — Pagination token
• fields (optional) — Comma-separated field projection (reduces payload)

4. Company Management

5. Search History

Track and manage lead search operations (e.g., Apify scraping runs).

List Query Parameters

• client_id, status (initiated/running/completed/failed), icpId, category, limit, cursor

Create Payload

{
  "searchName": "Tech Companies in SF",
  "searchDescription": "Looking for SaaS companies",
  "searchCriteria": { "industry": "Technology", "location": "San Francisco" },
  "searchFilters": { "companySize": "50-200" },
  "client_id": "client-123",
  "clientName": "Acme Corp",
  "icpId": "icp-456",
  "icpName": "Enterprise SaaS",
  "apifyActorId": "actor-789",
  "category": "prospecting",
  "tags": ["enterprise", "saas"]
}

6. Webhook Management

Create and manage inbound webhooks for third-party integrations.

Supported Platforms: heyreach, woodpecker, lemlist, generic

Create Webhook Payload

{
  "name": "My Webhook",
  "platform": "heyreach",
  "description": "Webhook for lead capture",
  "platformConfig": "{\"field_mapping\": {}}",
  "client_id": "client-123"
}

Returns: webhookUrl with embedded secret key for the external platform to call.

7. Territory Workbench

Aggregated company-level analytics for territory planning.

List Query Parameters

• client_id (required), sortBy, sortDirection, industry, minLeads, maxLeads, search, startDate, endDate

8. Settings Management ⚙️

Settings drive all Lead Processing endpoints. Configure settings first, then trigger processing.

All settings endpoints require JWT auth and are scoped by company_id.

URL Settings (Enrichment Service URLs)

Available URL/key pairs: companyUrl, emailFinder, enrichment1 through enrichment10 (each with _Apikey).

Agent Settings (EpsimoAI Agent IDs for Copyright)

Available fields: projectId, enrichment1AgentId through enrichment10AgentId.

SDR AI Settings (EpsimoAI Agent IDs for SDR AI)

Available fields: projectId, plus <fieldName>AgentId for all SDR fields.

9. Lead Processing 🚀

Settings-driven execution routes that trigger enrichment, copyright, and SDR AI processing on individual leads.

Enrichment Processing

{
  "leadId": "enrich-lead-id",
  "services": ["companyUrl", "enrichment1", "enrichment3"],
  "overwrite": false
}

Copyright Processing

{
  "leadId": "enrich-lead-id",
  "processes": [1, 3, 5],
  "overwrite": false
}

SDR AI Processing

{
  "leadId": "enrich-lead-id",
  "fields": ["message1", "aiLeadScore", "aiQualification"],
  "overwrite": false
}

Response Format (all three)

{
  "success": true,
  "runIds": ["run-abc-123", "run-def-456"],
  "batchTag": "enrich-process-1707654321-x8k2m1",
  "triggered": ["companyUrl", "enrichment1"],
  "skipped": ["enrichment3"],
  "leadId": "enrich-lead-id"
}

Processing Workflow

1. Configure (one-time per company): POST /api/settings/url, POST /api/settings/agent, POST /api/settings/sdr-ai
2. Trigger (per lead): POST /api/leads/process/enrich, .../copyright, .../sdr
3. Track: Use runIds → GET /api/trigger-task-status?runId=...

Data Architecture

Multi-Tenant Isolation

All data is strictly isolated. Three isolation layers are enforced:

1. Owner-based — Data filtered by authenticated user's owner ID (JWT sub)
2. Company-based — Data filtered by user's company_id (resolved from CompanyMember table)
3. Client-based — Data filtered by client_id (the slug, not the UUID)

Key ID Fields

🚨 Never confuse Client id with Client client_id. Using the wrong one when creating leads causes the "Invisible Leads" bug — leads exist in the database but don't appear in the UI. See the Slug vs UUID warning above.

Data Operations Auth Mode

After getAuthContext resolves the owner, all data queries use generateClient<Schema>({ authMode: 'apiKey' }) — meaning the Amplify API key handles DynamoDB access while the JWT provides identity and isolation.

Error Handling

All errors follow a consistent format:

{
  "success": false,
  "error": "Error message",
  "errorType": "authentication_error",
  "details": "Additional error details",
  "recommendation": "Suggested action"
}

HTTP Status Codes

Common Error Types

• Authentication — no_valid_credentials, token_expired, federated_jwt, no_valid_tokens
• Authorization — insufficient_permissions, owner_mismatch
• Validation — missing_required_field, invalid_format, invalid_value
• Resource — not_found, already_exists, conflict

Rate Limits & Pagination

Rate Limits

Handling Rate Limits

When you hit rate limits (429 status), implement exponential backoff:

import time
import requests
from requests.exceptions import HTTPError

def make_request_with_retry(url, headers, method="GET", json_data=None, max_retries=5):
    """Make API request with automatic retry on rate limits and server errors."""
    for attempt in range(max_retries):
        try:
            if method == "GET":
                response = requests.get(url, headers=headers)
            elif method == "POST":
                response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, json=json_data)
            elif method == "PUT":
                response = requests.put(url, headers=headers, json=json_data)
            elif method == "DELETE":
                response = requests.delete(url, headers=headers, json=json_data)

            response.raise_for_status()
            return response.json()

        except HTTPError as e:
            if e.response.status_code == 429:
                # Rate limited - exponential backoff
                wait_time = min(60 * (2 ** attempt), 300)  # Max 5 minutes
                print(f"Rate limited. Waiting {wait_time}s (attempt {attempt + 1}/{max_retries})...")
                time.sleep(wait_time)
            elif e.response.status_code >= 500:
                # Server error - retry with backoff
                wait_time = min(10 * (2 ** attempt), 60)  # Max 1 minute
                print(f"Server error. Waiting {wait_time}s (attempt {attempt + 1}/{max_retries})...")
                time.sleep(wait_time)
            elif e.response.status_code == 401:
                # Token expired - try to refresh
                print("Token expired. Attempting refresh...")
                # Implement token refresh here
                raise
            else:
                # Other errors - don't retry
                raise

        except Exception as e:
            print(f"Unexpected error: {e}")
            raise

    raise Exception(f"Max retries ({max_retries}) exceeded")

# Usage example
headers = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {access_token}"}
result = make_request_with_retry(
    "https://last.leadgenius.app/api/clients",
    headers=headers
)

Pagination

• Standard API: Cursor-based (limit + nextToken)
• Bulk API: Token-based (limit default 1000, max 5000 + nextToken)

Helper Scripts

Running the E2E Test Suite

python3 scripts/test_api.py \
  --username your@email.com \
  --password YourPassword \
  --base-url https://last.leadgenius.app

Options:

• --base-url — Override base URL (default: https://last.leadgenius.app)
• --skip-cleanup — Keep test data after run

The test creates a temporary client and leads, exercises all CRUD operations, and cleans up automatically.

CLI Usage (lgp.py)

# Auth
python3 scripts/lgp.py auth --email your@email.com

# Leads
python3 scripts/lgp.py leads list
python3 scripts/lgp.py leads find --full-name "Hugo Sanchez"
python3 scripts/lgp.py leads enrich --ids lead_1 lead_2

# Campaigns
python3 scripts/lgp.py campaigns list
python3 scripts/lgp.py campaigns create --name "Q3 Expansion"

# Pipeline analytics
python3 scripts/lgp.py pipeline --start 2026-01-01 --end 2026-02-08

# Maintenance
python3 scripts/lgp.py maintenance bugs list
python3 scripts/lgp.py maintenance bugs report --desc "Enrichment fails on LinkedIn URLs"
python3 scripts/lgp.py maintenance enhancements list
python3 scripts/lgp.py maintenance enhancements request --desc "Add support for Google Maps leads"

# API Key generation
python3 scripts/lgp.py generate-key --name "Production Agent" --desc "Key for main auto-agent"

# Admin (admin only)
python3 scripts/lgp.py admin companies
python3 scripts/lgp.py admin users

Quick Start

# 1. Authenticate and get JWT
python3 scripts/auth.py --email your@email.com

# 2. Run the full E2E test suite
python3 scripts/test_api.py --username your@email.com --password YourPassword

# 3. Or make individual API calls
python3 scripts/api_call.py GET /clients
python3 scripts/api_call.py GET /leads?client_id=acme-corp
python3 scripts/api_call.py POST /leads --data '{"client_id": "acme-corp", "firstName": "Test", "lastName": "User"}'

High-Fidelity Import Workflow

This is the recommended end-to-end procedure for creating a client workspace and importing leads in a single, robust run. Following these steps prevents data orphaning and ensures full visibility in the UI.

Step 1: Authenticate (Dual Level)

# JWT for administrative tasks (client creation, GraphQL)
python3 scripts/lgp.py auth --email your@email.com

# API Key for high-speed batch imports (generate if needed)
python3 scripts/lgp.py generate-key --name "Import-Key"

Verify ~/.leadgenius_auth.json contains both a token and an API key.

Step 2: Create the Client

Use the REST API or GraphQL mutation. Capture the returned client_id (slug) from the response — this is what you'll use for all lead operations.

python3 scripts/api_call.py POST /clients \
  --data '{"clientName": "Historic Leads", "description": "Legacy imported leads"}'

Step 3: Import Leads

Use the slug (client_id) from Step 2 in every lead object.

⚠️ Use single-lead POST for reliability. Batch POST ({"leads": [...]}) may return 201 but not persist leads. See HUBSPOT_TO_LEADGENIUS.md Bug #2.

# Recommended: Single-lead POST (100% reliable)
for lead in all_leads:
    payload = {"client_id": "historic-leads", "firstName": "...", ...}
    response = requests.post(f"{BASE_URL}/api/leads", json=payload, headers=headers)
    time.sleep(0.15)  # ~400 leads/min, safe rate

Step 4: Verify

# Confirm leads are visible via the same slug the UI uses
python3 scripts/api_call.py GET "/leads?client_id=historic-leads&limit=1"

Automated CSV Import (Recommended)

Use the provided CSV import script for automated batch import with best practices:

# Authenticate first
python3 scripts/auth.py --email your@email.com

# Import from CSV (auto-creates client)
python3 scripts/import_csv.py \
  --csv leads.csv \
  --client-name "My Client" \
  --company-url "https://example.com"

# Dry run to test
python3 scripts/import_csv.py \
  --csv leads.csv \
  --client-name "My Client" \
  --dry-run

CSV Format:

firstName,lastName,email,companyName,companyDomain,title,linkedinUrl,notes
John,Doe,john@acme.com,Acme Corp,acme.com,VP Sales,https://linkedin.com/in/johndoe,Demo lead

The script handles:

• ✅ Client creation and slug capture
• ✅ Batch processing (50 leads per request)
• ✅ Rate limit handling with exponential backoff
• ✅ Progress tracking and error reporting
• ✅ Import verification

Import Checklist

• Auth: ~/.leadgenius_auth.json has both token and API key
• Client created: Slug (client_id) captured from response
• ID mapping correct: Lead client_id uses the slug, NOT the UUID
• Notes populated: AI fields aggregated into notes for UI visibility
• Batch size: 50 leads per request for stability
• Verification: GET /api/leads?client_id=<slug>&limit=1 returns results

HubSpot → LeadGenius Import

For importing contacts from HubSpot CRM into LeadGenius, a comprehensive battle-tested guide is available. This covers all the nuances discovered during production imports.

Full Guide: HUBSPOT_TO_LEADGENIUS.md

Quick Reference: HubSpot Field Mapping

Critical HubSpot Import Rules

1. Use Single-Lead POST — Batch {"leads": [...]} returns 201 but does NOT persist. Always POST one lead at a time.
2. Never Send Empty Strings — Omit any optional field that has an empty string value. Empty strings cause 500 errors.
3. Phone Field Name — Use phoneNumber, NOT phone. Wrong name causes 500 Internal Server Error.
4. LastName Fallback — Use "-" (dash) for missing lastNames. A single dot (".") causes 500 errors.
5. Company from Associations — HubSpot's contact.properties.company is almost always empty. Fetch via &associations=companies and batch-read company details.
6. JWT Refresh — Tokens expire after 1 hour. Refresh every ~200 leads during import.
7. Use client_id Slug — Same as the core import rule: always use the client_id (slug), never the id (UUID).

Known Bugs (HubSpot-Specific)

Pre-Flight Checklist (HubSpot Import)

• LeadGenius auth — ~/.leadgenius_auth.json exists with valid token
• HubSpot token — .env contains HUBSPOT_ACCESS_TOKEN
• Client created — POST /api/clients returned successfully
• CLIENT_ID captured — using client_id (slug), NOT id (UUID)
• Associations enabled — HubSpot query includes &associations=companies
• Company data — using associated company objects, not contact company field
• Field names correct — phoneNumber (not phone), companyUrl, title
• No empty strings — all empty optional fields are omitted, not ""
• Names populated — fallback logic for missing firstName/lastName
• Single-lead POST — NOT using batch {"leads": [...]} endpoint
• Token refresh — logic to re-auth every 200 leads
• Test with 5 leads first — verify persistence before full import
