    Hi Helena! To connect Clay with Crunchbase, you can use the ZenRows integration or an outside API from RapidAPI through Clay's HTTP integration. Here are the steps to set up ZenRows: 1. Go to the enrichment panel in Clay by clicking the "add enrichment" button at the top right of the page and type "ZenRows". 2. Create a new column in your Clay table and input the Crunchbase search URL, ensuring it includes all companies you want to scrape. 3. Use a forward slash to link the column with the Crunchbase URL (e.g., /Website Column). If you prefer using an API from RapidAPI, you can find a list of APIs here: https://rapidapi.com/search?term=crunchbase&sortBy=ByRelevance. This will allow you to access data from Crunchbase through Clay's HTTP integration. Let me know if this helps!

    Sure, happy to help you to get this setup. Can you share a link to your table? Also, just to confirm: did you sign up for a plan? If so which one?

    Muhammad S. any good docs on how to do this well? When I put in the URL it gives me JSON and PHP but I'm not sure where to copy this into in Clay

    Taylor B. Hey Taylor! If you have enabled all the JSON parsing etc in Zenrows you should just be able to click on the responses and rows will be created in Clay
