How to switch
8 steps. We do them with you.
Export your Dripify leads
Export each campaign's leads to CSV from Dripify. Keep the LinkedIn URL, name, company, title and status.
Bring your do-not-contact list over first
Do this first. Before a single lead goes in. Collect the people and companies you exclude in Dripify, plus anyone already contacted.
Then send it over in one call, or add it in the app's Settings. People and whole companies both work, and sending the same list twice won't break anything. Gelee checks it when someone joins a campaign and again right before every message.
curl -X POST "https://www.gelee.ai/api/v1/blacklist" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer gk_your_key" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"entries":[ {"value":"https://www.linkedin.com/in/janedoe","type":"account"}, {"value":"Acme Corp","type":"company"} ]}'Connect your LinkedIn seats
Whoever sends the outreach connects their LinkedIn in the Gelee app, under Accounts. It takes a minute.
One rule matters more than the rest: don't let Dripify and Gelee both run campaigns from the same seat at the same time. Neither tool knows what the other sent, and LinkedIn sees both. Pause that seat's Dripify campaigns first, then switch it on in Gelee.
Brand new or rested account? Turn on warm-up and it starts slow.
Swap your message variables
Paste your Dripify messages into Gelee steps and swap the variables. If a variable comes back empty, Gelee drops that sentence instead of sending a blank, so you don't need a fallback on every one.
Anything of your own, like a report link or a finding, becomes a custom field:
{{custom.field_name}}. If a step needs a field that isn't there yet, it waits for it (up to a day). Handy if you write the link onto the lead when they accept.- first name →
{{firstName}} - company →
{{company}} - position →
{{role}}
- first name →
Rebuild the drip
Rebuild each drip as Gelee steps: the invite note, then each message with its wait. Gelee can personalise each message per lead from enrichment and your own fields.
Add your leads
Make the campaign, then add people however's easiest: upload the CSV, push them with the API, or point Zapier or Clay at the campaign's intake URL. All Gelee needs is the LinkedIn URL.
Leave out anyone Dripify already reached, unless you actually want a second touch. Gelee won't put the same person in two of your campaigns anyway.
curl -X POST "https://www.gelee.ai/api/v1/campaigns/CAMPAIGN_ID/leads" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer gk_your_key" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -H "Idempotency-Key: import-batch-1" \ -d '{"leads":[{"linkedin_url":"https://www.linkedin.com/in/janedoe", "first_name":"Jane","company":"Acme","title":"VP Sales", "custom_fields":{"report_link":"https://acme.example/r/5d70"}, "tags":["imported"]}]}'Repoint your integrations
Where a Zapier or Make scenario starts with a Dripify campaign webhook, replace the trigger with a Gelee webhook. Gelee also lets the scenario write back: mark outcomes, add tags, push new leads.
In Gelee, add a webhook under Settings, Event Destinations (or
POST /webhooks). Every event comes with the person, the seat that sent and the campaign. Hit Test to get a full sample before anything real flows.Leave the Dripify one running until you cut over, so your CRM doesn't have a gap.
Run both for a bit, then cut over
Don't move everything on day one. Start with a seat or two, run them next to Dripify for a few weeks, and look at accepts, replies and booked calls. Split by seat, never by person.
Happy? Pause the rest of Dripify, export one last time, move the remaining seats. Keep that last export. It's your record of who was contacted before.
Let AI do it
Let our AI move it.
The Gelee MCP already knows Dripify. Connect it to Claude or ChatGPT and ask it to move you over. It checks with you before anything sends.
Set up the MCPQuestions
Good to know.
Does Dripify have an API I need to port?
Dripify's pricing page now lists an open API and MCP, but most setups run through campaign webhooks into Zapier or Make. In Gelee you replace that trigger with a Gelee webhook and use the Gelee API to write back.
Can I run Dripify and Gelee at the same time?
Yes. Just don't run both on the same LinkedIn seat at once, and don't let them message the same people. Split by seat and you're fine.
Will I lose my Dripify conversation history?
No. The conversations live on LinkedIn, so they show up in Gelee once the seat connects. What doesn't come over is the other tool's own notes, tags and stats. Export those before you cancel.
Do I need the API to switch?
No. You can do all of this in the app. The API is there if you'd rather your own systems do it.
How long does a switch take?
Setup is about a day. The part that takes time is watching both side by side for a few weeks before you move everything.
For developers: API calls, webhooks and variables
Dripify exports leads to CSV and sends lead data out through a webhook URL set in each campaign's settings, which is how its Zapier and Make connections work; it also lists native CRM integrations. Its pricing page (checked 23 October 2026) also lists an open API, an MCP server and HubSpot integration.
