Multi-Select Columns Horizontally in Google Sheets: How-To Guide

Is it possible to multi-select columns horizontally? in the same fashion as I do ctrl-shift-left or right in google sheets?

Currently, we don't have a feature for multi-selecting columns horizontally in Clay like you can in Google Sheets. Our table functionality is designed differently. You can edit individual columns by clicking on the column header and selecting 'Edit column' from the dropdown menu. This allows you to change the input type and other settings for each column separately. If you need further assistance or have other questions about working with columns in Clay, please feel free to ask or request human assistance by clicking on 'Talk to a person'.

Hey, You can hold Shift and click across columns to select them horizontally, similar to Google Sheets. Curious—what are you trying to do after selecting them? Happy to guide you from there.

Thanks Bo. The clicking is cumbersome, and often if the cursor doesnt load in time but you click anyway, it will pull up the edit menu and deselect all the prior columns which is massively frustrating. Feature request is I want to be able to drag-select or ctrl+shift+left right select columns. context = imported a csv with like 5 value columns, but all 80 is empty value columns were also created. Adding email enrichment meant i was above the column limit, and so had to click through them individually as you described, which is a major frustration and waste of time. Thanks for your reply all the same!
