Issue with Creating Active Cycle Cutting Workflow Short
Why can't I create an active cycle here ? it would've completed my workflow
Why can't I create an active cycle here ? it would've completed my workflow
Conditional runs in Clay allow you to create active cycles by adding programmable logic to your workflows. Here's how they work: 1. They execute specific actions or enrichments only when certain conditions are met 2. You can set up custom conditional runs by: • Adding a new enrichment • Clicking on "Run Settings" and then "Conditional Run" • Using AI to generate specific formulas for your conditionsThe main benefits for your workflow include: ** Optimizing credit usage by running enrichments only when necessary ** Ensuring you get the most relevant data for each contact * Creating highly customized data workflows that match your specific needs Sources: AI Formulas + Conditional Runs [Clay 101] - Clay University Conditional runs | Documentation | Clay University

I even tried to write from an n8n webhook but it still says the same thing : https://app.clay.com/workspaces/16336/workbooks/wb_nQUk5WEmAzRY/tables/t_Jk2A23Qxwgqj/views/gv_SUgMipZcDtoi
Hey there, thanks for reaching out! ☺️ I had a look at your tables and it seems you have created an infinite loop by sending data from Table A to Table B, from Table B to C and from Table C back to Table A or B. A proper setup would entail Table A sending data to Table B, and then Table B sending data to Table C. If you would like to keep your structure, a workaround is to utilize a tool like Zapier/Make/n8n to output data and then send it to a different table via webhook to prevent loops. Let me know if you need additional help to organize your tables. Hope this was helpful :)
Hi thanks for the response, I tried the n8n method, but somehow clay still knows its a loop : https://app.clay.com/workspaces/16336/workbooks/wb_nQUk5WEmAzRY/tables/t_Jk2A23Qxwgqj/views/gv_SUgMipZcDtoi
how is this possible ?
Hey, because you write from "Evolution" to "Output loop" and back from "Output loop" and n8n back to "Evolution". As a workaround, what you can do is write the data to a new table and do a lookup to "Evolution". Would that work?
ok let me try this
Nice. Let me know how it goes, and happy to dive deeper :)
no this wont work, if i do lookup it will replace the exisitng row of data
I guess i will just have to build this fully on n8n
Could you share a bit more context about your use case or details so I can guide you in the right direction? I'm also a user of n8n so this should be actually feasible with Clay :)
I am scraping the suggested for you profiles from an instagram profile using apify and adding them into the "Evaluation" sheet for icp scoring, any profile that fits my ICP i write it to "Output loop" and then scrape that profiles Suggested profiles using apify and sending it back to "Evaultion" for ICP scoring, Its basically a lookalike loop workflow, because the Suggested profiles are a great way to find lookalike profiles on instagram
please let me know if that makes sense
That's feasible at first glance. What do you want to do with the suggested profiles? Send a message saying "Hey, I saw your profile was suggested from [YOUR ICP]?" If so, the approach would be: Output Loop: ICP fit - Apify Scrape New table: all Apify suggested profiles of all ICP fits - create lookup single row to Output Loop - create column from original ICP fit with name Would that work?
