    The waterfall feature in Clay allows you to use either Clay credits or your own API key, depending on your setup. By default, Clay's API key will be selected, which uses Clay credits. However, if you have your own API key for a specific service, you can use it without consuming Clay credits.When using a waterfall, you're only charged credits for the provider that successfully finds the data. If an action doesn't return a result, you generally won't be charged for it.If you're on a paid plan (Starter, Explorer, or Pro), you can integrate your own API keys for various data enrichment tools. This allows you to use these services within Clay without using Clay credits.Would you like more information on how to set up your own API key for a specific service in the waterfall?
