I am running into an issue where I use the Claygent prompt generator for an AI column. In both instances I am trying to parse one column into multiple new columns. When I run the AI column, I get the error "some inputs missing", and it tells me that the output column is blank and required to run. In this case, I am parsing a Full Name column into First Name and Last Name. The error says that the "inputs" of First Name and Last Name are missing. I've checked the wording of the prompt and it doesn't reference these output columns as a source of info, just as the output. I also ran into this issue with another similar situation as well
The "some inputs missing" error occurs because your output columns (First Name, Last Name) are marked as "Required to Run" in the Prompt Editor.
To fix this:
Open your Claygent Prompt Editor
Find the First Name and Last Name output fields
Toggle off "Required to Run" for these output columns
When defining column outputs in Claygent, ensure you're only marking input columns as required, not the output columns you're creating. For splitting operations like Full Name → First Name + Last Name, use the Formulas enrichment as an alternative approach.
You can click into the specific error cell to see more details about the error message.
Is that what you were looking for?
I see that that was suggested in the error message, but I do not see a setting or toggle for fields required to run
The Required to Run toggle is located in the Prompt Editor itself, not in the general column settings.
To find it:
Open your Claygent column
Click into the Prompt Editor
Look for the Required to Run toggle next to each field you've referenced in your prompt
Make sure you're toggling off "Required to Run" for your output columns (First Name, Last Name), not input columns.
You can also click into the specific error cell to see more details about the error message.
Is that what you were looking for?
yes thank you. It's unclear what that toggle is for unless you hover over it
You're right that the Required to Run toggle isn't immediately clear without hovering. This toggle ensures your AI enrichments only run when specific fields contain data, helping avoid errors from empty or incomplete rows. When enabled, the cell will be skipped if the referenced field doesn't contain a value.
Did that answer your question?
yes
