Hello! Why can't I find and add more people + their work emails to this workspace table? It shows I have credits but everytime I go to find and add more people it won't work and shows "0 added" https://app.clay.com/workspaces/242344/tables/t_D3dtF3mXAqHp/views/gv_9a8KXFWFYtwH
👋 Hey there! Our support team has got your message - we'll be back in touch within 24 hours (often sooner!). If you haven't already, please include the URL of your table in this thread so that we can help you as quickly as possible!
Hey there Alison thanks for reaching out, can you clarify how you are trying to add more people to this table. Are you using the "Import" or "Find more people" option form the "Actions" button or is it from the "Edit Source" option.
Through "Actions" "Find more people"
Hey there Alison after some testing on my end it seems that there are no other contacts that can be found through this search. To provide a bit more context on why this is the case: So Clay does not receive data directly from LinkedIn, but rather integrate with multiple data providers that provide company/people data. The data you can access from our third-party data providers may include data that can also be found on LinkedIn. If you're looking for this type of data, we recommend starting with the "Find People"/"Find Company"/"find people from sales nav" sources. Primarily because we don't use your live login session to get company/contact data and profiles that are restricted or set to private may be missed when searching for contacts. Results from the people search typically get impacted by the following instances: 1. Inputting semantic search parameter instead of syntactic search: A limited set of job title keywords are applied to the role being targeted. Our search algorithms are based on syntactic search which means you must put every variation of the keywords you're looking for (ie CEO and Chief Executive Officer). When this happens, some matching profiles may be missed because they were not included in the search query. Sales Nav is able to do semantic search which is also helpful. 2. Mapping the wrong inputs in the people filters. For example, not mapping LinkedIn urls from the company table to run the search. 3. Search limits applied to the people search. This reduces the number of records that can be imported from a search. 4. Private profiles: As mentioned above our data providers use a multitude of ways to access people and company data. For the most part though, we don't use your cookie/login data. This means that we could miss some information here and there, especially if there are privacy restrictions in place for certain profiles. This would mean that your logged in profile has access to it, but our data providers may not. Sales Nav has access to private profiles which is also why you might find better data quality results here. All this being said, we're continuously working on improving our search algorithm/building the best growth tool possible and are always looking for feedback! Also happy to take a look at your current search parameters in your table and make suggestions where needed.
thank you for the detaile response - what is the best way you recommend building to this list given my parameters without starting a new table and risking paying for the same datapoints?
Hey there Alison my recommendation would be to start a new table but do not use company identifies like you did last time with the websites. Omit that one but make sure to add one for location just so you don't end up with jobs in country you aren't in. I ran a new search on my own end with the exact same parameters minus the websites and was able to generate a much larger list. https://downloads.intercomcdn.com/i/o/w28k1kwz/1212061704/2d551dd447bec285261c5eced449/image.png?expires=1728597600&signature=b613c1ba98e0da0acd03e86559060fc90ef5ab9d99762a8734420a2ce65b2eeb&req=dSImFMl4nIZfXfMW1HO4zZ2efFoHqccjQowF8V7jw8nGuv%2B3LnbnJ0uNx6dU%0AivcL%0A
