How to Check for Duplicate Entries in Clay Tables

Is there a way to check across all clay tables (or a selection of them) for duplicates so you don't end up emailing or contacting ones you've already contacted.

There are several ways to avoid contacting duplicate profiles across your Clay tables: 1. When creating a new people search: • Use the "Exclude people" section to remove profiles that appear in other Clay tables 2. Within an existing table: • Enable auto-dedupe by clicking the Auto-dedupe icon at the bottom right • Select the column you want to dedupe • Click "Save Changes" Alternatively, you can dedupe a specific column by: • Right-clicking the column • Selecting "Dedupe > Delete Duplicate Row" 3. Before running new enrichments: • Use Lookup columns to check if the data already exists in your CRM or other Clay tables • This not only prevents duplicate contacts but also helps save credits by avoiding duplicate enrichments Sources: Find People overview | Documentation | Clay University Auto-update and Auto-dedupe Table Guide: Ways to save Clay credits | Documentation | Clay University
