Troubleshooting HTTP Validation Issues in Waterfall Setup | Clay

Troubleshooting HTTP Validation Issues in Waterfall Setup

·Jul 30, 2025 10:27 AM·

I am trying to run the HTTP in the waterfall on this table but for some reason when an email is found it is not running the validation. In the setup I have the correct column selected for the JSON output i think but any help would be appreciated.

When an email is found but validation isn't running, this typically indicates the email failed validation, causing the waterfall to continue to the next provider. The validation columns are hidden by default - you can unhide them to see how the validation process is working. Since you mentioned JSON output issues, could you copy and paste your JSON configuration into the chat? This will help troubleshoot any formatting problems that might be preventing proper validation.

Hey Richard Y. If the HTTP step isn’t running after finding the email, make sure: The email field is correctly mapped in the input The JSON output is in the expected format There’s no condition or filter blocking the step Try testing with a sample row to confirm the flow
