Six worked workflows you can run today. Each example assumes you’ve already authenticated (g8 login or export G8_API_KEY=...). See CLI overview for the full command reference.

1. Prospect and save to list

Find VPs of Engineering at SaaS companies, save the top 50 to a campaign list.

# 1. Create the target list
LIST_ID=$(g8 create-list --title "Q3 VP Engineering — SaaS SMB" | jq -r '.id')

# 2. Search + save in one shot (credits charged per contact saved)
g8 build-list --title "Q3 VP Engineering — SaaS SMB" \
  --filters '[
    {"field":"seniority_level","operator":"any_of","value":["VP"]},
    {"field":"job_title","operator":"contains","value":["Engineering"]},
    {"field":"company_industry","operator":"contains","value":["SaaS"]},
    {"field":"company_employee_count","operator":"between","value":[50,500]}
  ]' \
  --max-results 50

2. Sequence enrollment

Add a saved list of contacts to a sequence, then track engagement.

# 1. List sequences and grab the one you want
SEQ_ID=$(g8 sequences --limit 50 | jq -r '.[] | select(.name=="Q3 VP Engineering Outbound") | .id')

# 2. Get contact IDs from the list
CONTACT_IDS=$(g8 search-contacts --list-id 637 --limit 100 | jq -r '[.[].id] | join(",")')

# 3. Enroll (real sends — verify first)
g8 add-to-sequence --sequence-id "$SEQ_ID" --contact-ids "$CONTACT_IDS" --list-id 637

# 4. Check engagement 24 hours later
g8 sequence-analytics --sequence-id "$SEQ_ID"

3. Quote-to-cash

Create and send a quote with a signing link + payment link.

# 1. Discover the product catalog
g8 list-quotable-products | jq -r '.[] | "\(.id)\t\(.name)\t$\(.unit_price)/\(.currency)"'

# 2. Create the quote
QUOTE_ID=$(g8 create-quote \
  --contact-id 5028106 \
  --line-items '[
    {"product_id":"prod_platform","quantity":1,"unit_price":499,"recurring":true},
    {"name":"Onboarding (one-time)","quantity":1,"unit_price":2500}
  ]' \
  --currency USD \
  --expires-at 2026-07-15T00:00:00Z \
  --notes "Includes 90-day money-back guarantee." | jq -r '.id')

# 3. Send it
g8 send-quote --quote-id "$QUOTE_ID" --recipient-email [email protected]

# 4. Track signature status
g8 get-quote --quote-id "$QUOTE_ID" | jq '.status'

4. Reply triage and AI draft

Pull unread inbox threads, generate AI drafts, send replies.

# 1. List unread email threads
g8 inbox-list --channel email --status unread --limit 20 | jq -c '.[]' > /tmp/unread.jsonl

# 2. For each, generate an AI draft (costs credits per draft)
while read -r thread; do
  REPLY_ID=$(echo "$thread" | jq -r '.id')
  DRAFT=$(g8 inbox-draft --reply-id "$REPLY_ID" --channel email | jq -r '.body')

  # Print for human review (uncomment send to actually deliver)
  echo "=== Thread $REPLY_ID ==="
  echo "$DRAFT"
  echo
  # g8 inbox-send --reply-id "$REPLY_ID" --channel email --body "$DRAFT"
done < /tmp/unread.jsonl

5. Build + execute a workflow

Author a stage-checklist pipeline, attach it to a workflow, run it.

# 1. Get an AI-suggested pipeline based on org context
g8 suggest-stage-pipeline | jq '.'

# 2. Promote the suggestion (replace ID with your real one)
g8 create-stage-pipeline-from-suggestion --suggestion-id sug_abc123 --name "PLG Path"

# 3. Author a workflow that triggers on a form submit
WF_ID=$(g8 workflow-create --name "Demo qualification" \
  --config '{
    "nodes": [
      {"id":"n1","type":"form_trigger","config":{"form_id":"demo_request"}},
      {"id":"n2","type":"slack_message","config":{"channel_id":"C0123","text":"New demo: {{n1.contact.work_email}}"}}
    ],
    "connections":[{"from_node_id":"n1","to_node_id":"n2"}]
  }' | jq -r '.id')

# 4. Validate
g8 workflow-validate --config "$(g8 workflow-get --workflow-id "$WF_ID" | jq -c '.config')"

# 5. Activate
g8 workflow-update --workflow-id "$WF_ID" --is-active true

6. Intent-driven outreach

Find companies visiting a competitor URL, search for decision-makers, enroll them.

# 1. Hot accounts visiting competitor pricing
g8 intent-url-companies --url "https://competitor.com/pricing" \
  --date-from 2026-05-01 --limit 50 \
  | jq -r '.[].domain' > /tmp/hot_domains.txt

# 2. For each hot domain, find VPs/Directors
> /tmp/new_contacts.txt
while read -r DOMAIN; do
  g8 find-contacts \
    --filters "[
      {\"field\":\"company_domain\",\"operator\":\"any_of\",\"value\":[\"$DOMAIN\"]},
      {\"field\":\"seniority_level\",\"operator\":\"any_of\",\"value\":[\"C-Suite\",\"VP\",\"Director\"]}
    ]" \
    --limit 5 \
    | jq -r '.[].id' >> /tmp/new_contacts.txt
done < /tmp/hot_domains.txt

# 3. Enroll in competitive displacement sequence (real sends)
IDS=$(paste -sd, /tmp/new_contacts.txt)
g8 add-to-sequence --sequence-id seq_competitive_displacement --contact-ids "$IDS" --list-id 0

Patterns and idioms

Save command output for replay

g8 search-contacts --job-title CTO --limit 200 > snapshot.json
jq -r '.[].work_email' snapshot.json | sort -u > emails.txt

Bulk-create from CSV

tail -n +2 leads.csv | while IFS=',' read -r email first last title; do
  g8 create-contact --email "$email" --first-name "$first" --last-name "$last" --job-title "$title"
done

Parallel-safe (respecting 5 rps)

cat domains.txt | xargs -n 1 -P 3 -I {} \
  bash -c 'sleep 0.6; g8 lookup-company --domain "{}"'

Watch a long-running execution

EXEC_ID=$(g8 workflow-execute --workflow-id wf_abc --trigger-payload '{}' | jq -r '.id')
while : ; do
  STATUS=$(g8 workflow-get-execution --execution-id "$EXEC_ID" | jq -r '.status')
  echo "$(date +%T) $STATUS"
  [[ "$STATUS" == "completed" || "$STATUS" == "failed" || "$STATUS" == "stopped" ]] && break
  sleep 5
done
