hey there, got a problem when i'm trying to add my leads to my campaign on instantly, it's barely adding any, see this loom: https://www.loom.com/share/b5673382aa9340eea0d80dd938f6a00a (btw i have turned "Skip if Lead is in Workspace" off. here's my clay table: https://app.clay.com/workspaces/261880/tables/t_cndwZdfNmJps/views/gv_XF9GDbD2JvzA thanks i advance 😄
There could be a few key things to check: 1. Verify that you're using the correct column names in your Clay table. A common issue occurs when the email field doesn't match - for example, you might need to use "validated work email" instead of just "email". 2. Make sure you have: • Added your Instantly API key to Clay • Set up an existing campaign in Instantly (you cannot create new campaigns directly in Clay) • Obtained the correct campaign ID from Instantly 3. Check that you've provided all required fields in the enrichment settings: • Campaign ID (required) • Email (required) • First Name (optional) • Last Name (optional) • Company Name (optional)If you're using custom variables, note that these must already be added to your Instantly campaign via an import before they can be used in Clay.

There are a few key requirements and potential issues to check: 1. Make sure you have properly added your Instantly API key to Clay. 2. Verify that you're using an existing campaign in Instantly - you cannot create new campaigns directly through Clay. 3. Check that you've included the minimum required fields: • Campaign ID • Email address of the lead 4. If you're using custom variables, ensure they have already been added to your Instantly campaign through an import before trying to use them in Clay. 5. Double-check your column names in your Clay table match exactly with the fields you're trying to map in the enrichment settings.If you're still experiencing issues after checking these items, you may want to verify if the "Skip if Lead is in Workspace" setting is enabled, as this will skip adding leads that already exist in any campaigns in your workspace.

just filmed you this loom
This issue is likely due to custom variables in your Clay table. Due to limitations in the Instantly API, any custom variables you want to use must already be added to your Instantly campaign through an import before you try to add leads from Clay.To resolve this: 1. First, check that you're using the correct column names from your Clay table. A common issue occurs when the email column name doesn't match - for example, you might need to use "validated work email" instead of just "email". 2. If you're using custom variables (like personalized subject lines or email bodies), make sure to: • Import these custom variables into your Instantly campaign first • Verify that the column names in Clay match exactly with the variables in Instantly Sources: Add Lead to Campaign with Instantly Push Data To Your Email Sequencer [Clay 101] - Clay University

There are a few key requirements to check when troubleshooting leads not being added to your Instantly campaign: 1. Verify that you've added your Instantly API key to Clay correctly. 2. Ensure you're using an existing campaign in Instantly - you cannot create new campaigns directly through Clay. 3. Check that all required fields are properly mapped: • Campaign ID must be specified • Email address is mandatory • Any custom variables you're using must already exist in your Instantly campaign 4. If you're seeing a "missing input" error, double-check that the column names in your Clay table match exactly with the fields you've configured in the enrichment settings. 5. If you're using the "Skip if Lead is in Workspace" option, verify if the leads might already exist in other campaigns in your workspace.

what do you mean about import them first?
is this just an AI responding??
When using custom variables with Instantly integration, you need to first set up these variables in your Instantly campaign before you can use them in Clay. For example, if you want to use custom fields like "subject line" and "email body" in Clay, these variables must already exist in your Instantly campaign through a prior import process.You can then add these custom variables in Clay's enrichment settings, mapping them to the corresponding columns in your Clay table. This allows for personalized content for each lead when the data is pushed from Clay to Instantly.
