Hi Yevheniia, thanks for getting in touch! You need to run the basic enrichment when launching a table, otherwise is going to consume crdits

Clay is an aggregator/one access pass to 50+ data providers and their enrichment or data search services.Enrichments cost credits to run which you can see how much each one charges per search or result (cost established by the provider) when you add them (green credit icon next to them), and some will even refund the credits if they don't find data (some still charge even if they don't find anything).If you use your own API key we won't charge you credits for that enrichment provider. Clay.com/pricing for our plans.

thank you, guys. but I used a basic profile with no enrichments, or am I wrong? or to find a person from a LinkedIn company, will it count as a fully enriched company?

сould you kindly show me at least one action for which the credits were used since all the actions that we performed did not require credits, but for some reason, they were used.

Juan P. Can you also clarify whether new contacts could be added to the tables automatically (for example, when new linkedin profiles are discovered)?
Yevheniia

I meant that if add a new company to the companies table, will the contacts be added to the linked table automatically, but we already found out, thanks again for you help
