Apollo now requires a two-step process for email extraction. When you use "Find People at Company By Job Title," Apollo returns "[email_not_unlocked@domain.com](mailto:email%5Fnot%5Funlocked@domain.com)" instead of actual emails. To get the actual emails, you must: 1. Use "Find People at Company By Job Title" to find contacts 2. Use "write each item to new row in other table" to extract results 3. Run "Enrich Person From Apollo" on the new table to unlock the email addresses This is Apollo's current requirement - the integration doesn't use Clay credits, but you need both steps to access the full contact data including emails.

when writing to other table how would I map the contacts info when there are multiple found contacts

Adam A. that’s actually how Apollo’s API is structured one credit is used to find the contact basic info like name + title and another is needed to enrich it pull verified email, phone etc It’s a bit of a limitation from their side, not Clay One workaround: If you already have the person’s LinkedIn or email from another source like clearbit or a CSV, you can enrich directly without spending the first “find” credit

When using "write to table" with multiple contacts found, select the column containing your list of contacts in Step 3, then map the specific contact properties (name, title, email, etc.) to columns in your destination table in Step 4. Each contact from the list becomes a separate row in the new table, with their individual properties mapped to the corresponding columns you've selected. This flattens the list so each person gets their own row for further enrichment.
