Understanding auto-import vs. sequence daily target
Last updated: June 30, 2026
When creating lists, you can activate the Auto-import function. This will tell the AI agent to add a fixed number of leads to the List on a recurring basis (Daily or Weekly).
Once a list is linked to a sequence, it will gradually enroll all the leads in the sequence.
You then need to select the number of leads you want to contact each day. This number tells the agent how many leads associated to the sequence will receive messages each day.
Answer
List auto-import and sequence daily targets are two separate controls. Understanding what each one does will clarify the behaviour.
List auto-import controls how many new leads are imported into the list per day. For example, if you set it to 30 leads/day, the agent will attempt to add 30 new matching leads to your list each day.
Sequence daily target controls how many leads receive messages per day. For example, if you set it to 10/day, only 10 leads will be contacted each day, regardless of how many are enrolled.
What happens when you link a list to a sequence
When you link a list to a sequence, depending on the enrollment you define, all leads currently in the list are enrolled in the sequence immediately. Going forward, any new leads added by auto-import will also enroll as they are imported.
However, being enrolled in the sequence is not the same as being messaged. The sequence daily target controls the outreach pace:
All 30 leads enter the sequence at once when you link the list.
The sequence sends messages to 10 leads on day one, 10 on day two, and so on.
Each day, auto-import adds up to 30 new leads to the list, which enroll in the sequence and join the outreach queue.
