Apollo provides CRM and lead generation capabilities, helping businesses discover contacts, manage outreach, and track sales pipelines for consistent customer relationship development
Activate an inactive Apollo sequence and begin its scheduled outreach. Activation allows Apollo to send emails externally to enrolled contacts according to the sequence's configured steps and schedule. Reference: https://docs.apollo.io/reference/approve-sequence
Adds contacts to a specified Apollo email sequence and returns the contact details. `sequence_id`, `emailer_campaign_id`, and `send_email_from_email_account_id` must be retrieved from Apollo listing/search endpoints before calling this tool — these IDs cannot be inferred from names.
Searches Apollo's contact database for people using various filters; results capped at 50,000 records and does not enrich contact data. Combining multiple strict filters (organization_ids, person_titles, person_seniorities) can return zero results — start broad and narrow iteratively. Result records may have null email, phone, or organization fields.
Archive an Apollo sequence, making it inactive and finishing all enrolled contacts. This lifecycle change can end outreach for every contact currently in the sequence. The caller must own the sequence or have full-access sharing permission. Reference: https://docs.apollo.io/reference/archive-sequence
Creates multiple accounts in Apollo.io with a single API call (maximum 100 accounts per request). Use when creating multiple company records at once.
Tool to bulk create multiple contacts in Apollo with a single API call. Use when you need to create multiple contacts efficiently. Supports up to 100 contacts per request with optional deduplication.
Enriches data for up to 10 organizations simultaneously by providing a list of their base company domains (e.g., 'apollo.io', not 'www.apollo.io'). Each call consumes Apollo credits per domain enriched; monitor quota to avoid exhaustion errors.
Use to enrich multiple person profiles simultaneously with comprehensive data from Apollo's database. Each call consumes Apollo credits; avoid re-enriching the same contacts. Responses may include null or missing fields (e.g., email, phone, organization); treat unmatched records as valid 'no match' outcomes, not errors. Heavy use may trigger HTTP 429; respect Retry-After headers.
Bulk updates the stage for specified existing Apollo.io accounts, moving them to a valid new account stage.
Tool to bulk update multiple Apollo contacts with a single API call. Use when updating multiple contacts simultaneously - either apply the same updates to all contacts using contact_ids, or apply different updates to each contact using contact_attributes. Automatically processes asynchronously for more than 100 contacts.
Tool to check whether the provided Apollo API key is valid and accepted by Apollo (health/auth check).
Permanently mark an Apollo task as completed and return its resulting state. Apollo provides no undo or reopen route, so confirm the task ID before calling.
Creates a new account in Apollo.io; a new record is created even if a similar account exists, and provided `owner_id` or `account_stage_id` must be valid existing IDs. The response includes the new account's ID, which can be used directly in subsequent calls.
Creates a new contact in Apollo.io; use `account_id` to link to an organization and `contact_stage_id` for sales stage. Apollo does not auto-deduplicate — duplicate records sharing the same email are silently created; always search via APOLLO_SEARCH_CONTACTS before calling this tool. Requires explicit user confirmation before execution.
Creates a new sales opportunity (deal) in Apollo.io; all provided IDs (`owner_id`, `account_id`, `opportunity_stage_id`) must be valid existing Apollo identifiers. This action has persistent side effects — obtain explicit user confirmation before invoking.
Create an Apollo outreach sequence, optionally including steps and email variants.
Tool to create a single task in Apollo.io. Use when you need to add a new task to your team's Apollo account for a specific contact. The task will be assigned to a user and includes details like type, status, priority, due date, and optional notes.
Tool to log call records in Apollo from external systems. Use when recording calls made through outside systems like Orum or Nooks; requires a master API key and cannot dial prospects directly.
Creates a new custom field in Apollo.io for contacts, accounts, or opportunities. Use when you need to define additional data fields beyond Apollo's standard attributes.
Create an unsent Apollo outreach draft, or return the existing draft already linked to outreach_task_id.
Deactivate an active Apollo sequence. Deactivation pauses all enrolled contacts and stops scheduled email sends. Reference: https://docs.apollo.io/reference/abort-sequence
Fetches comprehensive organization enrichment data from Apollo.io for a given company domain; results are most meaningful if the company exists in Apollo's database. Each call consumes Apollo credits and may be unavailable on free plans. Returns HTTP 429 under burst usage; use exponential backoff on retries.
Enriches and retrieves information for a person from Apollo.io. Requires one of: `id`, `email`, `hashed_email`, `linkedin_url`, or (`first_name` and `last_name` with `organization_name` or `domain`) for matching. `webhook_url` must be provided if `reveal_phone_number` is true. Name-only inputs without `organization_name` or `domain` frequently return no matches.
Start an asynchronous gzipped JSON conversation export and email a team member when it is ready. Apollo charges 1 conversation credit for each exported conversation that has AI insights and 0 for each conversation without AI insights. Free plans allow one export request per minute and 20 per hour.
Tool to retrieve detailed information about a specific account by its Apollo ID. Use when you need to fetch complete account data including company details, contact information, and CRM integration fields.
Retrieves detailed information about a specific contact by its ID. Use this to view contact details including name, email, phone numbers, organization, and custom fields.
Retrieves information about a specific deal by its ID. Use this when you need to view details of a single deal.
Retrieves the full details of one Apollo task by ID, including associated records and type-specific data when present.
Retrieve full Apollo conversation details, including transcript, participants, recordings, and opportunities. Apollo charges one conversation credit when AI insights are present and zero otherwise.
Retrieve the download redirect URL for a previously started Apollo conversation export.
Retrieves content, open and click activity, and recipient details for one Apollo sequence email. Requires a master API key; OAuth is unsupported.
Retrieve content for up to 10 sent team outreach emails.
Retrieves all labels from Apollo.io, used for organizing contacts and accounts. Call this before APOLLO_CREATE_CONTACT or APOLLO_UPDATE_ACCOUNT to validate label values against the returned list; mismatched labels cause 400/422 errors.
Retrieves all configured opportunity (deal) stages from the Apollo.io account.
Retrieves complete information about a specific organization by its Apollo ID. Use when you need detailed company data including funding, technologies, employee counts, and more.
Retrieves paginated job postings for a specified organization by its ID, optionally filtering by domain; ensure `organization_id` is a valid identifier.
Retrieves all typed custom field definitions available in the Apollo.io instance, detailing their types and configurations. Call before constructing payloads for APOLLO_UPDATE_CONTACT or APOLLO_UPDATE_ACCOUNT — mismatched types or invalid enum options cause 400 errors.
Retrieves the IDs for all available account stages in your team's Apollo account.
Retrieves all available contact stages from an Apollo account, including their unique IDs and names.
Retrieves a list of deals from Apollo, using Apollo's default sort order if 'sort_by_field' is omitted.
List notes associated with Apollo records. Supply at least one contact, account, opportunity, calendar-event, or conversation ID field.
Retrieves a list of all users (teammates) associated with the Apollo account, supporting pagination via `page` and `per_page` parameters. Use this to obtain numeric user IDs required by operations like APOLLO_UPDATE_CONTACT_OWNERSHIP — names or email addresses are not accepted in place of these IDs.
Retrieves all email accounts and their details for the authenticated user; takes no parameters.
Retrieves all field definitions from Apollo.io, including system fields and custom fields. Use the optional 'source' parameter to filter by field type (system, custom, or crm_synced).
Query Apollo analytics metrics, dimensions, filters, and date ranges. This endpoint costs zero credits. Apollo rate limits depend on the connected team's plan; use the returned rate_limit metadata as the source of truth. Metric and dimension descriptions include common Apollo identifiers; team-defined custom metrics use custom_metric_{id}.
Searches for accounts within your existing Apollo.io database using various criteria; requires a paid plan and is limited to 50,000 records.
Searches Apollo contacts using keywords, stage IDs (from 'List Contact Stages' action), or sorting (max 50,000 records; `sort_ascending` requires `sort_by_field`). Search before creating contacts to avoid duplicates.
Search Apollo video meetings and dialer calls using record, participant, date, scorecard, sorting, and visibility filters.
Searches for call records in Apollo.io using filters like date range, duration, direction (inbound/outgoing), users, contacts, purposes, outcomes, and keywords. Supports pagination for efficient data retrieval.
Tool to search for news articles about companies in Apollo's database. Use when you need to find recent news, announcements, or updates about specific organizations using their Apollo IDs.
Searches Apollo's database for organizations using various filters; consumes credits on every call (unavailable on free plans) — avoid re-running identical queries and surface quota errors rather than retrying. Retrieves a maximum of 50,000 records; uses `page` (1-500) and `per_page` (1-100) for pagination — check `total_pages` in the response to iterate. Overly strict filter combinations can return zero results; start broad and narrow iteratively. Empty results and `org_not_found` are valid outcomes, not errors.
Tool to search for outreach emails sent through Apollo sequences. Use when you need to find emails created and sent by your team as part of Apollo email campaigns. This endpoint requires a master API key and has a display limit of 50,000 records (100 records per page, up to 500 pages).
Searches for sequences (e.g., automated email campaigns) in Apollo.io.
Searches for tasks in Apollo.io using filters like keywords, date ranges (due, created, updated), priorities, types, assigned users, associated contacts/accounts, supporting sorting and pagination.
Queue an Apollo email for external sending; success means queued, not delivered. This action causes Apollo to send an email outside Composio. Apollo processes the send asynchronously, so callers must check send status separately for delivery. Reference: https://docs.apollo.io/reference/send-email-now
Updates the ownership of multiple Apollo accounts to a specified user. Use when bulk assigning account ownership to a team member.
Updates specified attributes of an existing account in Apollo.io.
Tool to update an existing call record in Apollo.io. Use when you need to modify details of a previously logged phone call such as duration, status, notes, or associated contact/account information.

Update editable details of an existing Apollo task. Supply at least one update field in addition to task_id.
Updates the ownership of specified Apollo contacts to a given Apollo user, who must be part of the same team.
Updates the stage for one or more existing contacts in Apollo.io to a new valid contact stage, useful for managing sales funnel progression.
Updates a contact's status within a designated Apollo sequence, but cannot set the status to 'active'.
Update an Apollo sequence's settings, ownership, sharing, steps, and touches. Supplying emailer_steps replaces the ordered step set and can create, update, reorder, or remove steps and their touches based on the IDs supplied. Apollo can require the current complete step list even for a settings-only update. Reference: https://docs.apollo.io/reference/update-sequence
Fetches Apollo API usage statistics and rate limits for the connected team. Use before large enrichment/search runs to understand current API usage and plan/budget constraints.
Read team balances by credit type for Apollo's current billing cycle. Balance values represent credits except for the ``dialer`` key, which Apollo reports in minutes. This endpoint itself consumes zero credits.
