Hi, im doing a feed into Clay from Apify Indeed, and want to be able to move the job title across into the second table after i have found HR people within those firms, can anyone help with this or used the Apify Linkedin and Indeed feeds to Clay then Instantly?
You can transfer the job title from your first table to the second table using our "write to table" feature. [1]
Here's how:
Alternatively, you can use the "Write to Other Table" enrichment:
Add the enrichment to your first table
Select your destination table
Enter "/" to skip list selection
Map your job title column to the corresponding column in the second table
Are you looking to transfer just the job title, or do you need other data from the Indeed feed to move over as well?
If you need any more help with moving the job title or other data between tables using our "write to table" feature, please let me know. Would you like to provide more details about what you're trying to achieve or any specific challenges you're facing?
Just the tob title and ive done that but doesnt seem to have worked
Try using Force Run in your table settings - this can resolve write to table issues.
If that doesn't work, delete the affected column, create a fresh one, and re-map your job title data (make sure auto-dedup is activated in your destination table).
Are you seeing any error messages, or is the column just not populating with data? [1]
just saying error
That error could be from a few different issues. First, check if your Clay API key is properly connected - go to Settings > Connections and search for Clay to verify it's set up correctly.
If the API key looks good, the error might be from writing to a deleted column or sending data to a table that references another table. Try reconfiguring your write to table integration from scratch and double-check that all your columns and tables still exist. [1]
What specific error message are you seeing - does it mention anything about credentials, invalid data, or table configuration?
not sure here is the link and connection ok
I can see your table but can't access the specific error details from the shared link. The error you're getting is likely from one of these common issues:
Writing to a deleted column - Check if the destination column still exists
Table reference conflict - Make sure you're not sending data to a table that references another table
Misconfigured sequence - The write to table integrations might be conflicting [1]
Try this: Delete your current write to table column completely, then create a fresh one and re-map the job title data. Make sure auto-dedup is activated in your destination table.
Can you tell me which specific column is showing the error and what the exact error message says?
its showing this below the write to other table Please add a valid list here.
Perfect! That error means you're trying to write individual values but the system expects a list format. Since you're just transferring the job title (not a list), you need to enter "/" in the list selection step to skip it. [1]
Here's the fix:
In Step 3 of your write to table setup, enter "/" to omit the list selection
Then in Step 4, map your job title column directly to the destination table
If the value still isn't formatted correctly, try adding it through the "Other data from this table" section instead.
Are you seeing the "/" option in your setup, or is it still asking for a list?
cant see that option "/"
Since you can't see the "/" option, try adding the job title through the "Other data from this table" section instead. This resolves the list formatting error when the value isn't formatted as a list.
In your write to table setup, look for "Other data from this table" and add your job title column there rather than trying to map it as a list. [1]
Does that section show up in your configuration?
im noot sure how to do this as new to clay
Let me walk you through the exact steps for the "Other data from this table" method:
In your write to other table setup, look for Step 4: Map out columns
You'll see a section called "Other data from this table"
Click the dropdown there and select your job title column
Match it to the corresponding column in your destination table [1]
This bypasses the list formatting issue completely since you're mapping individual column values rather than list data.
Can you see the "Other data from this table" section in Step 4 of your setup?
