    Yes, you can reference fields from the connected Companies table in an AI prompt on the People table. Our tables are automatically linked, allowing you to access company data within your People table. To reference a field like the normalized company name: 1. In your People table, find the column linked to the Companies table (it will have a Clay logo). 2. Click on a cell in this column to access company variables. 3. In the Prompt Editor, use the required field toggle to ensure the company data is present before running the prompt. This setup allows you to extract company attributes directly into your People table, making it easy to reference in AI prompts without additional enrichment costs.

    To update the connected Companies table in the People table with a recently added variable, you need to rerun the lookup in your People table. Here's how: 1. Go to your People table. 2. Find the column that's linked to the Companies table (it will have a Clay logo). 3. Click on the header of this column. 4. Select "Rerun column" from the dropdown menu. This process will refresh the data and pull in the newly added variable from the Companies table. If you don't see the new values immediately, try force running through the whole column. Remember, this method ensures you're not using additional data credits while creating a more integrated dataset.

    the variable itself in the companies table has a clay logo (its the Normalize Company Name enrichment). are variables with the clay logo support to be available via / in my people table AI prompt?

    Yes, variables with the Clay logo from the Companies table, including the Normalize Company Name enrichment, should be available in your People table AI prompt. Our tables are automatically linked, allowing you to access company data within your People table. To use these variables: 1. Find the column in your People table linked to the Companies table (it will have a Clay logo). 2. Click on a cell in this column to access company variables. 3. Use the required field toggle in the Prompt Editor to ensure the company data is present. If you've recently added new variables to the Companies table, remember to rerun the lookup column in your People table to sync the updated information.

    Hey there Eugene thanks for reaching out, to clarify here the only way to reference a column inside of another table would be to use the Lookup Row in other table integration to connect the both tables together which would allow you to pull values from one table into the one the Lookup was ran from.
