When you see an email like [email_not_unlocked@domain.com](mailto:email_not_unlocked@domain.com) returned by Claygent (especially when using Apollo as a data source), it means the actual email address is not being provided due to Apollo’s restrictions. Apollo requires that you use the “Enrich Person from Apollo” action to unlock and retrieve the real email. Even if the email is visible on the website, Apollo’s API may not return it directly unless you follow their enrichment workflow. To resolve this, use the following steps: 1. Use Apollo’s “Find People at Company By Job Title” to identify the right contacts. 2. Write each result to a new row in another table using the “write to table” feature. 3. In the new table, use the “Enrich Person From Apollo” action (excluding the email column) and run the enrichment. 4. The actual email address should now be included in the response. If you need further help, you can request human assistance by clicking on "Talk to a person."
