Clay Advanced Troubleshooting

Overview

Deep debugging techniques for complex Clay issues that resist standard troubleshooting. Covers provider-level isolation, waterfall diagnosis, HTTP API column debugging, Claygent failure analysis, and Clay support escalation with proper evidence.

Prerequisites

• Access to Clay table with the failing enrichments
• curl and jq for API testing
• Understanding of Clay's enrichment architecture (providers, waterfall, columns)
• Browser developer tools for network inspection

Instructions

Step 1: Isolate the Failure Layer

#!/bin/bash
# clay-layer-test.sh — test each integration layer independently
set -euo pipefail

echo "=== Layer Isolation Test ==="

# Layer 1: Webhook delivery
echo "Layer 1: Webhook"
WEBHOOK_CODE=$(curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}" \
  -X POST "$CLAY_WEBHOOK_URL" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"_debug": true, "domain": "google.com"}')
echo "  Webhook: $WEBHOOK_CODE"

# Layer 2: Enterprise API (if applicable)
if [ -n "${CLAY_API_KEY:-}" ]; then
  echo "Layer 2: Enterprise API"
  API_RESULT=$(curl -s -X POST "https://api.clay.com/v1/companies/enrich" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer $CLAY_API_KEY" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -d '{"domain": "google.com"}')
  echo "  API response keys: $(echo "$API_RESULT" | jq 'keys')"
fi
