Get Phone Numbers Using API Key Instead of Clay Credits

If you're on a paid plan (Starter, Explorer, or Pro), you can use your own API keys from data providers to get phone numbers without using Clay credits. Here's how: You can add your API key in two ways: 1. Go to your profile picture > Settings > Connections section 2. When setting up an enrichment, click "Add Account" in the enrichment panelWhen you use your own API key, you won't be charged Clay credits for those phone number lookups - you'll only pay for usage through your direct account with the provider.While you don't need outside accounts to use Clay (you can use Clay credits), using your own API keys can be beneficial if you already have active subscriptions with data providers. The service will work the same way, but instead of consuming Clay credits, it will use your account's credits/allowance with that provider.
