Frequently asked questions

Ceven manages the entire lifecycle of a NeverBounce bulk job. The agent first creates the job and uploads your list, then it enters a polling state where it checks the job status at regular intervals. Once the status returns as completed, the agent automatically retrieves the results via pagination. It then iterates through every email address and updates the corresponding record in your CRM or database based on whether the email was marked as valid, invalid, or unknown. This removes the need for you to ever manually download a CSV or upload a file to the NeverBounce dashboard, as the data flows directly from the API into your tools.
Yes. You can build a workflow where Ceven acts as a gatekeeper. When a lead is captured via a web form, the agent immediately calls the NeverBounce single check action. If the result is invalid, the agent can either block the record from being created in your CRM entirely or create it with a specific tag that prevents it from being added to any active marketing sequences. This ensures that your sender reputation remains protected because you never attempt to send an email to a known bad address. You can also set up alerts to notify your sales team if a high value lead provides a fake email.
If a workflow attempts to trigger a verification and the account has zero credits, NeverBounce will return an error response. Ceven captures this error and can be configured to trigger a specific failure path. For example, you can set up an automation that sends a high priority Slack message to your operations manager or opens a ticket in Jira to purchase more credits. To avoid this, you can build a recurring check that uses the get account info action every morning to monitor your credit balance and alert you when it drops below a certain threshold, such as five thousand credits.
NeverBounce identifies catch all emails as addresses where the domain is configured to accept all mail regardless of the prefix. Because these cannot be verified with one hundred percent certainty, they are flagged as such. In Ceven, you can define specific logic for these results. Some users choose to treat catch all emails as valid to ensure they do not miss potential leads, while others treat them as risky and move them to a separate, slower sending sequence. The agent maps this specific NeverBounce status to a custom field in your database so you can segment your outreach based on the level of risk.
Yes. NeverBounce imposes specific rate limits on the single check endpoint to prevent abuse and ensure system stability. If your workflow triggers a massive burst of single checks in a very short window, you may encounter a rate limit error. To handle this, Ceven implements an automatic retry mechanism with exponential backoff. This means the agent will wait a few seconds before trying the request again. For extremely high volume needs, it is recommended to use the bulk verification job action instead of multiple single checks, as the bulk endpoint is designed for massive datasets and does not suffer from the same per second request constraints.
Ceven does not store your email lists as permanent records. The agent acts as a conduit between your data source, such as a Google Sheet or HubSpot, and the NeverBounce API. When a bulk job is processed, the data is held in a temporary execution context while the agent maps the results back to your original system. Once the workflow is completed and the records are updated in your CRM, the temporary data is purged. This architecture ensures that your sensitive customer contact information is not duplicated across multiple platforms and remains stored only in your approved systems of record.
Yes. By using the send widget event action, you can feed data from your website forms into Ceven. When a user interacts with a NeverBounce widget on your site, the event can be sent to a Ceven webhook. The agent then parses that event to see if the form was loaded or completed. This allows you to build advanced attribution workflows. For example, if a user completes a form and the email is verified as valid, the agent can immediately trigger a welcome email sequence in your ESP. If the form is loaded but not completed, you can trigger a retargeting ad based on that specific interaction.
The delete job action sends a request to NeverBounce to permanently erase a specific bulk verification job and all its associated results from their servers. This action is irreversible. Once the agent executes this call, you can no longer download the CSV or retrieve the paginated results for that job ID. Use this action in your workflows for data privacy compliance, such as when a client requests that their data be deleted. You can set up a cleanup workflow that automatically deletes NeverBounce jobs older than thirty days to keep your account dashboard clean and ensure you are not storing old verification data longer than necessary.
