Troubleshooting Apify Scraper Issues in Clay: Help Needed!

Romeo M. · 2025-02-26 18:41:42.826539+00

I’m running some Apify scrapers using Clay, and I have the same setup in two different tables, but I still have some issues. See if you can look into it. I made a video here explaining the situation, and below, you can find the two tables Video: Table 1 (not working); Table 2 (working): I don’t understand why the same setup, with absolutely everything being the same, still results in an error in parsing the input JSON body

I apologize for the confusion. I see that you've already provided the URLs for both tables in your initial message. However, to effectively troubleshoot the JSON parsing issue, it would be most helpful if you could copy and paste the actual JSON content from both tables directly into our chat. Could you please provide the JSON content for both Table 1 (not working) and Table 2 (working)? This will allow me to examine the exact content and potentially identify any subtle differences or formatting issues that might be causing the problem. Once you share the JSON, I can help you with: 1. Checking for hidden characters or extra spaces 2. Verifying punctuation and syntax details 3. Ensuring proper formatting of dynamic column references 4. Identifying any differences between the working and non-working JSON This will help us pinpoint the exact cause of the parsing error. If you need any assistance in locating or copying the JSON content, please let me know, and I'll be happy to guide you through the process.

Hi there. When using the feature “Find People at Company”, why do I see here only 740 companies while my list is over 2,900?
