FAQ

Where do I get the Pull API key? In IndiaMART Lead Manager, the three-dot menu > Import/Export Leads > Pull API > Generate Key. It is for paid sellers with the Leads API add-on. Keep it secret.

Can I use it without giving my key to anyone? Yes. Open the Pull API URL in your own browser and save the answer as a .json file, then attach that. Or run --pull on your own computer with the key in IM_PULL_KEY.

Will it keep my notes when I add new leads? Yes. Download your sheet as CSV and pass it with --master. Your status, owner, notes, next_action, quoted_amount and any columns you added are kept.

Does it send quotes to buyers? No. It writes quotation and reply drafts. You check them and send them yourself.

How do I pull older leads? Use --pull --since-days 90 (up to 365). It makes one call per 7 days, 5 minutes apart, as IndiaMART requires.
