The "Write to Other Table" feature is being deprecated, but there's a replacement! Use the new "Send table data" action instead.
Here's how:
1. In your table, click Actions → Send table data
2. Select your destination table
3. Choose Send row to transfer specific columns
4. Click Save [1]
The legacy "Write to Other Table" columns are still available through the "Add Enrichment" button if you need them temporarily. But the new Send table data action is the recommended approach going forward.

You're right - "Send table data" creates new rows by default. However, there's a key detail: when you first send a row, it creates a new row in the destination table, but for subsequent sends, it updates that same row. [1]
So it will enrich existing rows on subsequent runs, not keep creating new ones. The first run creates the row, then future runs update it with new data. [2]
If you need to match and enrich existing rows in your destination table right away, you might want to use the "Lookup Multiple Rows in Other Table" or "Lookup Single Row in Other Table" actions instead. [3]
