How long does it typically take when setting up a new job posting signal to populate? Have been waiting for 20 minutes seeing "this signal is currently running" for a table of about 700 companies
The documentation doesn't specify exact timing for signal processing. Signals are automated tracking systems that monitor changes to contacts and companies, with new hire signals costing 0.2 credits per check. You can set the frequency for how often signals should run when configuring them. What type of signal are you setting up - new hires, job changes, or promotions?
I just created the signal and looking for job postings in the last 30 days, I expect there to be at least a few results so far and then more ongoing however the table is still empty so wondering if I did something wrong
Job posting signals may take time to populate initially. The sources don't specify exact timing, but signals are automated tracking systems that run on the frequency you set during configuration. For job-related tables that aren't pulling new data, check if your source is set to "static" instead of "dynamic" - you can change this in your sources settings to run on a schedule and automatically import new entries. Since you're looking for job postings in the last 30 days, ensure your signal filters are configured correctly for the timeframe and job criteria you want to track.
Hey Jared G. here sometimes signals can take a bit longer to populate especially right after setup even with a smaller company list If it’s been over 30 minutes and still showing as running I’d double check a couple things make sure the signal is actually turned on in the table and that the companies you're tracking have active job boards clay can pull from
You're right that signals can take longer to populate initially, especially after setup. Here are key things to verify: Check signal status: ** Ensure the signal is actually turned on in your table ** Verify your signal frequency settings are configured properly Verify data sources: ** Confirm the companies you're tracking have active job boards that we can pull from ** Check that your company identifiers (website URLs, LinkedIn URLs) are correct Review filters: * Double-check your job posting filters and 30-day timeframe settings are configured correctly If it's still showing "running" after 30+ minutes with these items verified, there may be an issue with the signal processing.
