Hi, where do you guys get and update the data from "Enrich person from Linkedin Profile"? [the elaboration says if the data hasn't been updated in the last 45 days you pull it live]

don't have the table
general question

To elaborate on my question:
I believe this thing doesn't have access to all of Linkedin because otherwise I'd get more Linkedin jobs and I want to have the ability to access all current linkedin profiles (and jobs....)

Hey Boyric we work with a bunch of data providers to get the LinkedIn data and get solid coverage, although not 100%
Boyric

and where do you get your sales navigator data from ? same thing as for linkedin?

Yep, same thing!
Boyric
·
·
so how can I validate the quality of data I'm getting
Boyric
·
·
without manually comparing it with the real linkedijn
Boyric
·
·
my assumption is that: a) You have data from some provider b) and this data was scraped by this provider at X time
Boyric
·
·
sometimes it hasn;t been updated in 45 days so you request new data from the data providers

is there a way to prompt clay to see how recent this data is?

Yep it will be inside the LinkedIn enrichment column (see example here)

thank you!

One more question! If I'm not satisfied with the 'freshness' of data
is it possible to update it somehow using the same enrichment?

Right now that isn't possible. Sorry! But it does keep updating on a rolling basis.

is there a blog for the upcoming features

or maybe a vote for the future features
Boyric

[saw some startup doing those]
Stefan K.

Right now we don't have that, although there is going to be more announcements coming this year about features being launched, to help create awareness about what is being built 🙂 I will share this idea with our content team though!
