  • Click the + Invite button in the top-right corner.
  • Enter the email address of the person you want to invite.

  • Find the member you wish to remove.
  • Click the 🗑️ icon next to their name.
  • Confirm the removal.

Connections

The Connections settings allow you to manage integrations with external services. Each integration is represented as an account with its own authentication and configuration.

You can connect multiple accounts to the same integration for added flexibility, designate default accounts for specific integrations, and modify, reconnect, or remove accounts as needed.

What is an integration account?

An integration account is a configured connection between your workspace and an external service, such as an API or data provider. Each account enables your workspace to authenticate and interact with the service to perform specific tasks or access features.

  • Account / Key Name: A user-defined name to identify the account, such as "Marketing HubSpot Account" or "Development Anthropic Key." This helps distinguish it from other accounts in the same service.
  • Account Credentials: The authentication details (e.g., API keys or OAuth tokens) required to connect securely to the external service. Credentials can be tested or updated if they become invalid.
  • Default Status: An optional setting that makes the account the default choice for its service, streamlining its use in workflows.

Types of accounts

User-managed accounts:

  • Configured by users with their own credentials, such as personal API keys or OAuth tokens.
  • Ideal for integrations that require team- or project-specific access.

Clay-managed accounts:

  • Provided by Clay and configured for public use.
  • These accounts use workspace credits instead.
  • Clearly labeled in the Connections section, and often pre-set as default.

Add a new integration account

To add a new account for an integration:

  • Navigate to Settings > Connections.
  • Click + Add connection in the top-right corner.
  • Use the search bar to locate the service you want to integrate with.
  • Follow the on-screen instructions to authenticate and configure the connection.
  • Once completed, the account will appear under the corresponding service in the Connections list.

Managing existing accounts

View your integration accounts

  • Navigate to Settings > Connections.
  • Select a service (e.g., HubSpot or Anthropic) to see all associated accounts.
  • Use the search bar to quickly locate a specific account.

Edit your integration accounts

  • Select the service and click the menu next to an account.
  • Choose Edit to:
    • Update the Key Name.
    • Modify or re-enter credentials.
  • Toggle Set as Default to make this account the default.
  • Click Save to apply changes.

Testing credentials

To ensure your account credentials are valid and the integration is functioning correctly:

  • Navigate to Settings > Connections.
  • Select the service (e.g., Anthropic) to view its associated accounts.
  • Locate the account you want to test.
  • Click the menu next to the account and select Test Connection.

Setting default accounts

A default account is automatically selected for workflows or integrations where no specific account is specified. To set an account as default:

  • Navigate to Settings > Connections and select the desired service (e.g., Anthropic).
  • Locate the account you wish to set as the default.
  • Click the menu next to the account, and select Set as Default.
  • The account will now display a default label to indicate its status.

Deleting accounts

  • Navigate to the service in the Connections section.
  • Click the menu next to the account and select Delete.
  • Confirm the deletion.

Clay-managed accounts

Clay-managed accounts simplify access to external services by providing pre-configured integrations that use workspace credits instead of requiring individual credentials.

For some integrations, only Clay-managed accounts are supported. For others, you will need to provide your own API key.

Plans and billing

Understanding actions and data credits

Clay's pricing is built on two separate usage meters:

  • Actions measure the work Clay orchestrates on your behalf — enriching data, running AI research, syncing to a CRM, exporting to CSV, sending to a sequencer, and more. Each enrichment or execution task consumes 1 action. Actions are a background meter included in your plan; 90% of customers will never hit their actions limit.
  • Data credits are used to purchase data from Clay's marketplace of 150+ third-party providers — finding emails, phone numbers, company data, and AI enrichments. Costs vary by data type and provider. Bringing your own API key for a third-party provider costs actions but does not consume data credits.

Trials

If your team wants to do a trial, each team member can create their own trial account to explore Clay independently.

Referrals

Clay's referral program allows you to invite others to join and earn rewards. When someone signs up using your referral link and activates a paying workspace, both of you will earn 3,000 Clay credits. Referral credits are not subject to the usual rollover rules — they stay in your account until you use them.

To access and share your referral link:

  1. Click on your profile picture in the top-right corner and select Settings.
  2. Navigate to Referrals in the sidebar.
  3. Copy your unique referral link displayed in the Referrals section.
  4. Share the link with friends, colleagues, or teams who might benefit from using Clay.

You can monitor your referral activity, including the number of leads, converted users, and credits earned, directly in the Referrals section.
