Managing integration accounts

Clay consolidates multiple data providers into a single platform and integrates with your tech stack through 100+ available integrations.

• Eliminate data procurement fatigue: Clay-managed accounts simplify contract management with data providers, handling billing through Actions and Data Credits.
• Integrate with core tools: Choose from 100+ integrations to ensure compatibility with your go-to-market system.
• Flexibility to bring your own API key: Use Clay-managed accounts for quick setup or connect your own API keys at no extra cost (paid feature).

Using Clay-managed accounts

Clay-managed accounts are pre-configured integrations that let you access data providers without individual credentials or API keys. These accounts use actions (for platform orchestration) and data credits (for data costs) to simplify access and eliminate the need for individual service contracts.

Some integrations only support Clay-managed accounts, while others let you use either Clay-managed accounts or your own API keys.

Move existing columns to a different account

When the account behind a connection changes — someone leaves the workspace, or you're moving from a personal account to a shared integration account — you don't need to touch the columns that use it. Reconnecting a connection swaps the credentials underneath it and leaves everything pointed at it intact.

1. Go to Settings → Connections.
2. Find the connection you want to move.
3. Choose Reconnect.
4. Sign in with the new account's credentials.

Every column, workflow, and scheduled run tied to that connection now uses the new account. Nothing needs updating column by column.

This works because the connection itself is the thing your columns reference, and reconnecting changes only its authentication. It's the right move when you're replacing an account. It is not how you move work between two accounts that both already exist as their own connections in the workspace — there, the columns reference two different connections, and each has to be repointed.
