Do You Need Pre-Arranged Columns for Send Data to Table?

·Dec 01, 2025 07:13 PM·

When using "Send Data to Table", do you have to pre-arrange the columns in that table, or can you have a blank table and the Enrichment will take care of it

You can use both approaches. When sending data to a table, you can either:
• Send to existing table: Map your columns to pre-arranged columns in the destination table [1]
• Create new table: The enrichment will automatically create columns based on the data you're sending [2]
During setup, you'll map out which columns from your source table should align with columns in the destination table. If it's a new table, Clay creates the structure automatically based on your mappings [3].
You can also add new columns to any existing table using the "Add column" option if needed [4].

There are two Enrichments titled "Send Table Data" Which one is correct?

The "Send table data (Enrichment · Clay Labs)" option is correct for your use case. [1]
The "Export" version is the legacy "Write to Other Table" enrichment that's being deprecated. The new "Send table data" action (Clay Labs version) is accessed through Actions → Send table data and handles column creation automatically when sending to new tables.
