ยท

I imported a csv of companies, enriched them to find the domains. My objective is to create an exclusion table list. However when I tried to exclude that list i am getting the error "This table does not contain a companies search". How do I make it a companies search if i am importing it as a csv

    To use your CSV data as an exclusion list, you'll need to first convert it into a proper company search table. Here's how to do it:1. Create a new table using the "Find Companies" search 2. Use the Ocean.io integration with your existing company domains as input 3. Set your desired filters (industry, location, etc.) 4. Run the search to create a proper company search tableOnce you have this new table set up as a company search, you can use it in the "Exclude Companies" section when running other company searches.Note: Simply importing a CSV doesn't automatically make it a company search table - you need to create it through the Find Companies feature with proper enrichment to use it as an exclusion list.
