To set up automated weekly imports from Phantombuster with Slack alerts: 1. First, set up the Phantombuster integration: • Go to Settings > Connections • Click "+ Add Connection" and select Phantombuster • Enter your Phantombuster API key and name your account 2. Create a table with Phantombuster as the source: • In your workbook, click "+ Add" and search for "PhantomBuster" • Select your Phantombuster account • Specify the Agent ID you want to pull data from 3. For weekly automation, use Clay's auto-update feature and set a schedule. If you're receiving an error when pulling leads, check: ** Your Phantombuster API key is valid and correctly entered ** The Agent ID is correct ** The container settings (if using "Only Fetch Latest Container" or "Only Fetch Specified Container ID") ** Your PhantomBuster agent is running successfully For Slack alerts, you'll need to set up a Slack integration after your enrichment process.

If your Clay table isn't pulling leads from Phantombuster despite having leads in your campaign, check these common issues: 1. Verify your Phantombuster API key is valid and correctly entered in Settings > Connections. 2. Confirm you've entered the correct Agent ID in your table setup. 3. Check your container settings - if you've enabled "Only Fetch Latest Container" or specified a Container ID, make sure these settings are appropriate. 4. If you're getting a "No valid leads found" error, check for invalid characters in your data fields that might be preventing proper import. 5. Try toggling off any special container settings and run the integration again to see if it pulls all available data. If these steps don't resolve your issue, please share any specific error messages you're seeing for more targeted help.

Hi Hermann, Would you mind sending the link (url) to the table so we can take a closer look?

I'd also recommend a quick refresh (Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + R) and let us know if the problem has been resolved. There were a few bugs we recently resolved here. Gabe
