syncInbox

This method enables whole-inbox monitoring for your account so you can poll the inbox for messages across every conversation. Run it once per account.

Unlike syncConversation, which watches a single person, syncInbox tracks your entire inbox but only captures messages that arrive after it is enabled.

typescript

try {
  const workflow = await linkedapi.syncInbox.execute();

  const { errors } = await linkedapi.syncInbox.result(workflow.workflowId);

  // The list of possible execution errors is below
  if (errors && errors.length > 0) {
    console.warn('Workflow completed with execution errors:');
    errors.forEach(error => {
      console.warn(` - Type: ${error.type}, Message: ${error.message}`);
    });
  } else {
    console.log('Inbox monitoring enabled.');
  }
} catch (e) {
  // A list of all critical errors can be found here:
  // https://linkedapi.io/sdks/handling-results-and-errors/#handling-critical-errors
  if (e instanceof LinkedApiError) {
    console.error(`Critical Error - Type: ${e.type}, Message: ${e.message}`);
  } else {
    console.error('An unexpected, non-API error occurred:', e);
  }
}

python

from linkedapi import LinkedApiError

try:
    workflow = linkedapi.sync_inbox.execute()

    result = linkedapi.sync_inbox.result(workflow.workflow_id)
    errors = result.errors

    # The list of possible execution errors is below
    if errors:
        print("Workflow completed with execution errors:")
        for error in errors:
            print(f" - Type: {error.type}, Message: {error.message}")
    else:
        print("Inbox monitoring enabled.")
except LinkedApiError as e:
    # A list of all critical errors can be found here:
    # https://linkedapi.io/sdks/handling-results-and-errors/#handling-critical-errors
    print(f"Critical Error - Type: {e.type}, Message: {e.message}")
except Exception as error:
    print("An unexpected, non-API error occurred:", error)
