How to Extract URLs for Twitter and Instagram Profiles using Clay

I’m starting with a website that has a large list of social profiles, including links to Twitter and Instagram. I’m hoping Clay can extract the URL for all Twitter and IG profiles, then enrich that list with name, phone and email. Can someone confirm if this is doable with Clay and if so what the best way to start would be?

I was trying to pick a template that would be a good place to start, and haven’t picked on yet.

This is not going to work with the clay scraper, you need a more sophisticated way, try Apify for scraping this, they have an specific scraper for OF, there is an Apify integration for Clay
