Solving Missing Input Errors in AI Message Generation with Webhooks

ยท
ยท

Im creating an AI message, where I have included several columns to generate the chatgpt output. However, sometimes some of those columns are blank, because I'm receiving data from webhook, and then the generation of message is failing because I'm getting error that input is missing. How can I solve this?

    There are two main ways to handle blank columns and prevent AI message generation failures:1. Use the "Required to Run" toggle in the Prompt Editor: โ€ข Open the Prompt Editor for your AI enrichment โ€ข For any fields that must contain data, enable the "Required to Run" toggle โ€ข When enabled, the enrichment will automatically skip rows where required fields are empty 2. Implement error handling in your prompt: โ€ข Add conditional statements to handle missing data โ€ข Set default values or error messages for empty fields โ€ข For example, you can use IF statements to check if fields are empty and provide alternative outputsThis way, your enrichment will either skip incomplete rows or handle empty fields gracefully instead of failing.

    add a run condition in the AI column so that it only starts running when the required data is received from the webhook

    You can set up a conditional run for your AI column by following these steps:1. In your AI enrichment panel, scroll down to "Run Settings" 2. Click on "Conditional Run" 3. You can either: โ€ข Type out your condition manually, or โ€ข Click "Use AI" and describe your condition in plain language using "/" to reference webhook columnsFor example, if you want the AI column to run only when specific webhook data is present, you could:** Type "/webhook_field is not empty" to run only when that field contains data ** Create more complex conditions like "/webhook_field1 is not empty AND /webhook_field2 > 0"This ensures your AI enrichment will only execute when the required webhook data is available, helping you save credits and prevent errors from incomplete data.

    You can set up a workflow with Weezly in Clay by using either webhooks or Zapier:Using Webhooks:1. Click "+ Create New" on your Clay home page 2. Scroll to "Other" and select "Import data from Webhook" 3. Choose or create a table for your Weezly data 4. Copy the generated webhook endpoint 5. Configure this endpoint in your Weezly settingsAlternatively, using Zapier:1. Create a Zap with Weezly as the trigger 2. Add Clay as an action 3. Connect your Clay account using your API key (found in Settings > Account > API key) 4. Configure the action settings to send your Weezly data to your desired workspace and table 5. Test the connection to ensure data flows correctly Sources: Guide: How to send Zapier information to Clay Import Data to Clay Using Webhooks
