The “find contacts at company” clay action is very buggy. When first created it works and after a few tests its stop working and no employees are created in the employees table. I did not fully figured out why this happens. Maybe because test the same company over and over again.
This issue occurs because Clay doesn't automatically reprocess previously generated data. When you run the "Find contacts at company" action multiple times on the same company, the table won't refresh with new results. Clay doesn't update existing results when you run the same search again. Even if the preview shows different results, your table won't reflect these changes until you take specific action. To resolve this when testing the same company repeatedly: 1. Delete and re-run the step that generated the data 2. Or duplicate the table with the updated source This behavior is by design - Clay preserves your original results rather than automatically refreshing them when the same search is performed again.
But lets say that I run a test with a company and contact are saved into the employees table. Now I completly empty the employees table and run the same company again. Does this still aply what you just said?
Even if you completely empty the employees table, running the "Find contacts at company" action again for the same company won't automatically generate new results. This happens because Clay doesn't reprocess previously generated data automatically. When you run the same search again, the table won't refresh with new results even if the preview shows different data. To actually get new results after emptying the table, you need to: 1. Delete and re-run the step that generated the data, or 2. Duplicate the table with the updated source This behavior is by design - Clay preserves the original processing results rather than automatically refreshing them when the same search is performed again.
