What changed

Replaced the non-existent "Continue" button steps in docs/audiences.md with the correct Upsert segment record enrichment workflow. Also fixed four downstream FAQ references that cited the same non-existent flow.

Specific changes:

  1. "Sending data from Clay table" section — removed Click Continue at the bottom of the table → Save to People/Companies steps; replaced with Add enrichment → search for Upsert segment record → map columns → run
  2. "People sourcing for ad platform sync" FAQ — fixed "then click Continue → Save to People from the table" to "use Upsert segment record in the table"
  3. "Why doesn't my Clay table appear in the Person source filter?" FAQ — fixed "using Continue → Save to People" to "using Add data → Add source → Clay table"
  4. "How do I find which Clay table a lead in Audiences came from?" FAQ — fixed "via Continue → Save to People or Save to Companies"; added note that records pushed via Upsert segment record don't create a named source entry
  5. "If I delete or archive a Clay table..." FAQ — fixed "via Continue → Save to Companies / Save to People, or using Upsert Audiences Record" to "using Upsert segment record or the Add data → Add source → Clay table import flow"

Why

Intercom conversation 215475557457527 shows a Growth-plan customer (Laurent Léveillée, deck.co) who asked "how do I turn this table into an audience?" Fin replied repeatedly with instructions to click a "Continue" button at the bottom of the table — a button that does not exist in the product. The customer spent significant time looking for it before escalating. Human support agent Aamish Samotra confirmed: "There is no 'Continue' button, that was incorrect information. The right way to send your table records into Audiences is to add an Upsert Audiences Record enrichment column to your table."

The doc's "Sending data from Clay table" section was the root cause — it explicitly described Click Continue at the bottom of the table as the first step, which Fin surfaced as authoritative. This section and four FAQ references to the same fictitious flow have been corrected.

Materiality vs. existing PRs: PRs #2291 and #2288 (Webflow sync PRs from Aug 24) add Upsert segment record content to the Clay-table section. PRs #2204 explicitly adds the wrong "Continue → Save to Companies / Save to People" phrasing to the "If I delete or archive" FAQ — this PR corrects that. None of the other open PRs touch the 4 FAQ references fixed here. This is the only PR that (a) removes wrong "Continue" content rather than just adding alongside it, and (b) fixes the FAQ misinformation.

Source link(s)

  • Intercom conversation: https://app.intercom.com/a/apps/w28k1kwz/inbox/inbox/conversation/215475557457527
  • Verifier evidence (action exists): /workspace/public-actions/src/upsert-audiences-record/index.ts — real action, key upsert-audiences-record; /workspace/clay-base/libs/shared/src/ActionDefinitions.ts:255displayName: 'Upsert segment record'
  • Verifier evidence (no Continue button in tables): searched clay-base/apps/frontend/src/components/Table/ — no such component found; Continue button only exists in search wizard contexts (CPJSourceStepSidebarFooterActions.tsx, FpacContinueButton.tsx), not at the bottom of regular tables

Uncertainties

The doc retains several pre-existing references to Upsert Audiences Record (the conceptual name) throughout other sections — notably the "Using Audiences from a Clay table" section and the conflict-resolution priority table. The enrichment panel display name in the product is "Upsert segment record" (ActionDefinitions.ts:255), while the Audiences-side source label is "Upsert Audiences record" (sync-source-types.ts:45). The existing Upsert Audiences Record references were not changed in this PR (scope = fixing the "Continue" button misinformation); a follow-up pass to normalize naming throughout the doc would reduce confusion for users and Fin.

Audiences access is gated by the EnableAudiencesGA Eppo feature flag (default false). The doc already states it's available on Growth and Enterprise plans, and the customer in this ticket (Growth plan) had Audiences access — but the Eppo targeting config lives outside the repo and could not be confirmed from code alone.

Closes DOC-2152

…ment record instructions

Fin repeatedly told customers to click a 'Continue' button at the
bottom of a Clay table to push records into Audiences — a UI element
that does not exist. Human agent Aamish Samotra confirmed: 'There is no
Continue button, that was incorrect information.' The correct method is
adding an Upsert segment record enrichment column to the table.

- Replace the 'Sending data from Clay table' section steps with the
  correct Upsert segment record workflow
- Fix four downstream references in FAQs that also cited the
  non-existent Continue flow
