Troubleshooting AI Evaluation Issues with Incomplete Data

Ammar K. · 2025-03-18 17:15:39.01492+00

Hi Everyone, I have a list of decision makers from various sources in my Clay table. I am using the AI to evaluate through the results in order to determine which are the best ones. I've given the AI results from Apollo, Clay find People and also from an AI agent. However some of these inputs are blank and therefore the AI stops evaluating. Can someone please help me?

To ensure the AI continues evaluating your Clay table even with blank inputs, you can use conditional runs. Here's how: 1. Click on "Run Settings" for your AI evaluation. 2. Select "Conditional Run." 3. Use the AI to generate a formula that skips blank inputs. This approach ensures you're not wasting credits on rows with missing data. Additionally, you can use AI formulas to clean or format your data, removing null or incomplete results. For managing blank cells, you can also use filters to hide rows with empty cells, helping you focus on complete data. If you need more assistance, you can request human help by clicking on "Talk to a person" in the chat.

Use AI formulas to clean and format your data: • Add a new formula column • Use the "Ask question about items with AI" option • Prompt the AI to handle blank inputs or format data as needed 2. Set up conditional runs: • Click on "Run Settings" for your AI evaluation • Select "Conditional Run" • Use an AI formula to generate a condition that skips blank inputs This approach ensures you're not wasting credits on rows with missing data and allows the AI to continue evaluating effectively.

The issue is that of course some of these inputs will be blank since I used various sources in order to come up with a decision. For reach row some sources are blank while others are not. I want the AI to ignore the blank sources and with whatever information is available regarding all the prospects I want it to come up with an answer.

Hi Ammar, You can simply toggle off the "Required to Run" option on the dynamic object. That'll fix your issue!
