To exclude a blacklist of companies from your company search on the Explorer plan, you can use the "Exclude companies" feature in the Find Companies source. Here's how: 1. Create a new table in Clay and import your CSV with the blacklisted companies. 2. When setting up your Find Companies search: • Look for the "Exclude companies" option • Select the table you created with your blacklisted companies This will ensure that the companies in your blacklist are excluded from your search results. If you need more detailed guidance, a community member mentioned that a video tutorial on this topic was being created. You might want to check if it's available now for step-by-step instructions.

is it possible to exclude the companies from the blacklist in retrospect? so if I already created a list of companies and then make sure to remove all companies that are on the blacklist?

To remove blacklisted companies from an existing list, you can use the "Lookup Single Record in other Table" and "Write to Other Table" features. Here's how: 1. Create a table with your blacklisted companies. 2. In your existing companies table, use "Lookup Single Record in other Table" to check if each company is in the blacklist. 3. Use "Write to Other Table" to create a new clean list, excluding matched companies. Set up a condition in "Write to Other Table" to only include companies not found in the blacklist. Enable auto-update to keep your clean list current. For a detailed guide on these features, check our Clay University resources.
