To reconnect a new CSV to your duplicated workbook template: Option 1: Import CSV to existing table 1. In your duplicated table, click Actions → Import 2. Select Import from CSV 3. Upload your CSV file 4. Choose Add to existing table and select your duplicated table 5. Map the CSV columns to align with your Clay table columns 6. Click Add to table Option 2: Use write to table integration Since duplicating only copies the header structure (not data), you can use the "write to table" integration to transfer data from your original table to the new one. Click Add Enrichment, search for "write to table", and map your existing data fields to the corresponding columns. The CSV import will reconnect your data source to trigger the downstream workflow in your duplicated template.

Hi, Ben A. Open duplicated workbook. Click Add Data Upload CSV Upload your CSV again. Make sure column names match the old CSV. Clay will auto-reconnect if column names are same.

This reconnects your data source and triggers the downstream workflow in your duplicated template.

Hey there Ben thanks for reaching out, if you are looking to reupload the CSV here, this can be done by going to the table where you want to import it to and head to the "Actions" menu and select the "Import from CSV" option to re-enter it
