Debugging Infinite Loop in Clay API for Serper.Dev Search Parameters

Griffin D. · 2024-10-25 18:04:01.603056+00

Hi - I have a bit of a technical question, I am working on the Clay API, I have created the following from Server. The problem is when I add the "search parameters" as columns and then update the body to map the columns, it creates an infinite loop and error. Have tried to de-bug multiple times and cannot figure it out, any help?

This happens when you are trying to add an input that is connected to the output of your column. i.e you are passing an output of seper.dev to the input of serper.dev Can you check where the parameters query string and location string are coming from?

Ensure query string and location string are not dependent on the output of serper.dev

Hi thanks for the reply, it appears that the query string and location string are coming from the HTTP API, how would I fix this problem specifically, in clay or in serper.dev? I am unsure

You are passing the output of google search as an input to it, you should avoid doing that and it will work just fine.

You can create a new column of HTTP api and then pass the query string to it and it should be ok

So I changed the output of the google search as an input and made the columns just regular text columns but am still recieving the error code https://app.clay.com/workspaces/263283/workbooks/wb_4vN5BnBERsoG/tables/t_dCP5HqzREwV3/views/gv_CxHbnvgZTQAQ

Nice, can you click on the error and send me the screenshot to see the details of your error? It is because your inputs are empty

wouldnt my inputs be from the serper dev?

No, why? that was the problem originally

You need to build a query to pass it to serper.dev
