Hey folks! Curious if it's possible to run more automated versions of the "find people from external lists" function? Ideal state is that

  1. 1.

    SDRs or AEs paste a LinkedIn SN search list into a slack channel

  2. 2.

    Zapier send the link to Clay

  3. 3.

    Clay executes the find people from external list method

  4. 4.

    Contacts are entered to a templated table and imported to the CRM

Really I just need help automating #3. Thank you!

    To automate the "find people from external lists" function using Zapier and Clay, you can follow these steps: 1. Set up a Zapier workflow that triggers when a LinkedIn search list is pasted into your Slack channel. 2. Configure Zapier to send this data to Clay using our Webhook integration: • In Clay, create a new table or use an existing one. • Set up the "Import data from Webhook" option. • Copy the generated endpoint URL. 3. In Zapier, use the HTTP POST action to send the data to the Clay webhook URL. 4. In Clay, use the "write to table" feature to process the incoming data. 5. Set up the Find People search in Clay: • Define your search parameters based on the incoming data. • Set result limits to manage credit usage. • Run the search and import results into your desired table. This automation will help streamline your workflow for finding people from external lists.
