You can use Clay's Format Date/Time formatter to generate the current date/time value, and then map this to a custom field in Salesforce. Here's how: 1. Create a custom date/time field in your Salesforce CRM to track the Clay update timestamp. 2. Use the Format Date/Time formatter in Clay to generate the current timestamp. You can specify: • The format you want for the date/time • The timezone (defaults to UTC if not specified) • The locale for date formatting 3. When setting up your Salesforce Update Record or Upsert Object action, map the formatted date/time value to your custom field.This approach follows the best practice of tracking when records are updated by Clay, which can help manage data freshness and automate future update cycles.

Hey Chase - I'd recommend to set up a formula column (it's super straightforward). Inside it, use a prompt that references your enrichment or column like this: return the last updated date of /enrichment This grabs the exact date when that data was updated or edited.
