I know there is no sequence API. But we need to enroll contacts into sequences programmatically. We have an app that we use at conferences, and we enroll people into a 4 email drip campaign after the conference. The reason we can’t use workflows, (which we do now) is because workflows don’t have reply detection. So when someone replies to a workflow, they still get the next 3 emails. So they get angry. The right tool is sequences because it has reply detection, (unless workflows can get reply detection one day). But I can’t enroll people without a human. (Or scraping I guess) How should this be handled? ---

Hi [@optikalefx](https://community.hubspot.com/u/optikalefx) … did you manage to hack on this? As far as I know there’s no way to do it via the API, and we’re on the same scenario right now. ---

I’m interested in knowing whether there is any workaround here in order to enrol contacts in sequences? ---

You can indeed use workflows to enroll contacts in a sequence if you have the Enterprise Sales or Service Hub. With these plans, you have access to more advanced features in workflows, including reply detection.
