Issue with Clay Not Retrieving 100% of Apify Results

Hey team, for some reason Clay isnt retriving 100% of the Apify results, can someone take a look? It happened a while back but was good till today. Here's the table if you need it: https://app.clay.com/workspaces/449716/workbooks/wb_u6yqT3UjukNw/tables/t_ZJbQVs6TRCFd/views/gv_Fypnw3QN8Po3

Another pull, 499 Apify results --> 366 Clay records, none should be duplicates (maybe single digits but definitely not 130 of them). Fresh Linkedin leads

There could be a few reasons why Clay isn't retrieving all 499 Apify results: 1. Record limit: Our Apify integration allows for retrieval of up to 5000 records from a single run. However, your Clay plan might have a lower limit on the number of records you can import per search. 2. Search parameters: Check if you've set any limits in your search parameters. You can control the number of records returned in your search by setting an overall limit (up to 50,000 records per search on most plans). 3. Duplicates: While you mentioned there shouldn't be many duplicates, Clay might be automatically removing some records it identifies as duplicates. To resolve this, try adjusting your search parameters and check your plan limits. If the issue persists, it may require further investigation by our team.

Hey - Sorry it's happening. Let's fix this. Can you let me know which specific source is experiencing this? I can see 5. Are you noticing any patterns in what's missing? For example, are certain tasks, actors, or types of data not appearing in your Clay results? Let me know the details! :)

hey thx Bo! it's really the first and second pull, 3-5 are duplicated pulls trying to pull additional records from same apify run so no worries. 1st and 2nd pull definitely have overlaps so probably deduplicated a lot. Might wanna just focus one 1st pull where Apify had 499 records and Clay only extract low 300s

Hey! Looking at your pulls, I see different results between them. For the first pull (without any number), we found 149 results but only 134 made it to the table. For pull (1), we found 364 but only 321 are in the table most likely duplicates. I tried pulling without specifying a run, but that gave even fewer results (126). You can see this here: https://app.clay.com/workspaces/449716/workbooks/wb_u6yqT3UjukNw/tables/t_23gQeaNFx3TW/views/gv_SV74syRnj8pN Could you tell me exactly which Apify run we should be using? It might help if we create a fresh table for that specific run so we can properly analyze what's happening.

Hey Bo, nfoxlXfiqhBnsL1c0 For pull (1), we found 364 but only 321 are in the table most likely duplicates. ^that would be the run with 499 records in Apify
