Issue with Cloning Enrichment Steps in Data Setup

Hello. When setting up an enrichment step, I set up the columns I want to have created. When I clone the enrichment step to reuse again in a new column, the columns I previously selected aren't available. Is this a user error on my end or a feature request?

When you clone an enrichment step in Clay, the columns you previously selected aren't automatically carried over. This is because cloning only duplicates the structure, not the data or column selections. To resolve this, you have two options: 1. Manually select the columns you want in the new enrichment step. 2. Use the "Write to Table" integration to transfer data from the original enrichment to the new one. This behavior is by design, allowing flexibility in creating new enrichments. If you need further assistance, you can request human support by clicking on "Talk to a person" in the chat.

Yes. Although it could be a great feature request. Needing to reselect 18 columns out of 40 can be time consuming especially since you can't view them in parallel.

Thank you for your suggestion to improve our cloning feature. Currently, when you duplicate a table or workflow in Clay, only the structure is copied, not the data or column selections. While we don't have an immediate solution to automatically duplicate column selections, we appreciate your feedback. It's a valuable suggestion that could enhance user experience, especially when dealing with numerous columns. In the meantime, you can use our "write to table" integration to transfer data between tables. This can help streamline the process of recreating your desired setup. We'll pass your feature request to our product team for consideration in future updates. If you need more assistance, feel free to ask for human support in this chat.
