hi there! does clay have an API? we love clay and was thinking of building an automatic enrichment service straight from our product. so will need a way to feed an input (say company website url), trigger a set of enrichment (can't find an API for this – does this need to be an internal table i alr set up?) and then pull the output...
Yes, you can use Clay's webhook and HTTP API features to build an automatic enrichment service. You can connect to any tool that you have API access to, and Clay integrates with 75+ market-leading data enrichment tools.To set up automatic enrichment: 1. Create a webhook table in Clay to receive your input data (like company website URLs) 2. Use Clay's enrichment library to process the data 3. Export the enriched data through the APIYou can leverage various enrichment providers through Clay, including Clearbit, Datagma, Apollo.io, and Harmonic.ai, among others, to get comprehensive company information from your website URL inputs.

Could you please provide more details about the specific types of enrichment data you're looking to obtain from the company website URLs?
yeah how do i trigger the enrichment? it's just about finding contacts, stuff like that
To perform enrichment for finding contacts from company websites, here's how you can do it: 1. First, import your list of company website URLs into a Clay table. You can use the CSV import feature for this. 2. Once your data is in Clay, you can use the "Find Contacts at Company" enrichment action, which will add new columns with contact information based on the company domain/website you provided. 3. The enrichment will run automatically on new rows in your Clay table by default. However, you can also set up specific conditions for when the enrichment should trigger using formulas.Make sure your input URLs are complete (including https://) for the best results. The enrichment will help you discover contact information, including company details and employee data.

To set up a webhook table in Clay: 1. Go to your Clay workspace 2. Click on "Import Data from Webhook" to add a new source 3. Clay will automatically generate a unique webhook URL for youOnce you have the webhook URL, you can: ** Paste it into any application that will be sending data to Clay ** Optionally add authentication by including a token in the header (key: x-clay-webhook-auth) Sources: Webhooks - Clay University Intro to Typeforms, Webhooks, and Inbound Lead Sources [Automated Inbound] - Clay University
To add enrichment to your webhook table: 1. Click on the column where you want to add enrichment 2. Select your desired enrichment action from the available options 3. Configure the enrichment settings: • Auto-update: By default, this is enabled to automatically enrich new rows when they're added to the table • Conditional runs: Optionally, you can set specific conditions for when the enrichment should run using formulas 4. Select which enriched data you want to add as columns to your tableThe enrichment will then process your data based on these settings. Even if you don't add specific columns initially, the enriched data will still be available for later use. Sources: Apify - Clay University DeepL - Clay University
This limitation is related to the column limits for enrichment actions in Clay. Each table has a 30-column limit for action (enrichment) columns, even if you're under the total column limit. If you're not seeing enrichment options, you may have reached this limit.To add new enrichment columns, you'll need to delete some completed enrichment columns after you've retrieved the data you need. While this can be a workaround to add new enrichments, please note that it might be challenging to manage, especially with setups that require multiple enrichments.
Looks like you're still looking for help. We're escalating this over to our support team and someone should be in touch soon. In the meantime, feel free to include any other information that may be helpful in solving your issue!
Hey there! Yes, webhooks are an Explorer plan feature. But no worries - there are a couple other ways you can get data into your tables: 1. Use the "Write to other table" action to move data between Clay tables 2. Import your data directly as a CSV file Let me know if you want me to walk you through either of those options! 😊
Hey! Yeah, both webhooks and HTTP requests are on higher tier plans, actually. But good news - I can add you to a trial so you can test these features out! Just send me your workspace URL Let me know if you want to play around with either feature and need any pointers! 😊
