Hi,

Hi, i'm getting this error when trying to take LinkedIn Company URL to populate a people search into a new table:

It looks like the "Update People Search (Find people Table)" action is running into an "Invalid input" error. This is likely due to an issue with the "Find People Search ID" input.

I've tried the suggested steps to fix but it's still not working. Any ideas?

The "Invalid input" error typically occurs when adding a Find People source to an existing table without the proper column setup. To fix this: 1. Check your table structure - You need LinkedIn Company URLs or Company Domains columns already set up in your table 2. Use the correct workflow - Go to Actions → "Find People at These Companies" and ensure: • Table Reference points to your company table • Company Identifier is mapped to your LinkedIn URL column • LinkedIn profile URLs are preferred over domains for highest accuracy 3. Verify your LinkedIn URLs - Make sure they're properly formatted company LinkedIn URLs (e.g., https://www.linkedin.com/company/clay-run) If the issue persists after verifying these steps, request human assistance by clicking "Talk to a person" for further troubleshooting.
