Clay Install & Auth

Overview

Clay is a web-based data enrichment platform — there is no SDK to install. Integration happens through webhook URLs (inbound data), HTTP API enrichment columns (outbound calls from Clay), and the Enterprise API (programmatic people/company lookups). This skill covers account setup, API key management, provider connections, and webhook configuration.

Prerequisites

• Clay account at clay.com (free tier available)
• For Enterprise API: Enterprise plan subscription
• For webhook integration: HTTPS endpoint or tunneling tool (ngrok)

Instructions

Step 1: Get Your Clay API Key (Enterprise Only)

Navigate to Settings > API in your Clay workspace. Copy your API key. Clay's Enterprise API is limited to people and company data lookups — it is not a general-purpose table API.
