Warm-up mode for new accounts

Warm-up is optional. Crispy does not start it when you connect an account. When you enable it, it lowers the daily cap for a ramp. It never raises a cap. LinkedIn's User Agreement section 8.2 prohibits unauthorized automation. These controls do not authorize the activity and do not guarantee against restriction.

Start it with manage_outreach_settings using action 'warm_up' and op 'start', plus a mode. The warm-up action requires Pro.

  • 'auto': a 14-day ramp. Day 1 is 3 invitations, 10 messages, 25 profile views, 10 engagement actions, 30 searches, and 1 post per day. Day 14 is 15 invitations, 100 messages, 150 profile views, 80 engagement actions, 200 searches, and 5 posts per day.
  • 'aggressive': a 7-day ramp with higher starting points.
  • 'custom': pass your own per-category start, target, and ramp days via the categories parameter.

While warm-up is active, the effective cap for each category is the lower of the warm-up limit and your normal daily limit.

Check progress with get_account. It shows the warm-up state and today's effective limits per category alongside your usage.

Stop early with op 'stop'. Your normal daily caps apply immediately afterwards.

The ramp day is derived from the start date. Warm-up progresses on calendar days whether or not the account was active every day.
