Clay client onboarding SOPs

Clay client onboarding SOPs

This automation adds a client folder to Clay and links the folder ID to your PJM tool for future automations.

This automation has 2 components. 
1. Adding a client folder to Clay
2. Adding your Clay folder ID into your PJM tool (for future automations)

I recommend combining this automation with Smartlead client onboarding SOPs.
Pre-requisite: You must have a way to initiate the automation while providing the required fields.

Manual Changes

Clay Undocumented API

To leverage undocumented APIs you will need to log in to Clay which will give you your Clay token. This token will be used in the modules following the Clay log-in, for example:
 

 
In order to find the {INSERT_COOKIE_DETAILS} you need to

 

Click "inspect element" ➝ go to the "Network" tab ➝ click the "Fetch/XHR" button

Look for the request headers section

 


When you open this tab, there will be a section called "Cookie". This Cookie has 2 parts, the first part will remain static and it is what we will paste in the automation for ({INSERT_COOKIE_DETAILS}

The 2nd section is dynamic, and that's what we get from logging in (the token)... If you're unsure where the split occurs, simply run your Make module (Get Clay Token) and look at the output as it will contain a token; now you can take the first half from the header cookies, excluding your token

Client Database

If you don't leverage a project management tool
  • Download the Smartlead client database and simply add a field called "Clay folder ID"
  • This ID will be useful when you create other Clay automations, that duplicate and move tables.


Set a schedule

I recommend choosing a "daily" occurrence for this automation
