Run Your First Enrichment

This article walks you through running your first data enrichment in TexAu, from picking a template to reviewing your results.

Before you begin

Have one of the following ready:

  • A list of company domains (such as microsoft.com, salesforce.com)

  • A list of LinkedIn URLs

  • A list of email addresses

  • A list of company names

If you do not have real data, you can enter a few sample rows manually.

You also need at least one data provider connected. Go to Settings > Integrations to confirm your providers are set up.

Step 1: Pick a template

  1. Click Templates in the sidebar.

  2. Browse the available templates. Common starting points include:

    • Company Enrichment - If you have company domains or company names

    • Lead Enrichment - If you have LinkedIn URLs or email addresses

    • Contact Details Lookup - If you want to find phone numbers and addresses

  3. Read the template description to see what data it enriches and which providers it uses.

  4. Click the template to view its details, then click Use This Template or Clone.

Step 2: Create your table

When you click the template action, TexAu prompts you to create or select a table:

  1. Choose Create New Table.

  2. Give your table a name (for example, "My First Companies" or "Test Leads").

  3. Click Create.

TexAu sets up the table structure based on the template. You will see columns for the input data and the output data the template is configured to return.

Step 3: Add your data

Add data to the input columns in your table.

Option A: Paste data directly

  1. Click + Add Row to add rows to your table.

  2. Fill in the input column (for example, paste company domains one per row).

  3. Add 5 to 10 rows to start.

Option B: Import from CSV or Excel

  1. Click the Import button near the top of the table.

  2. Select your CSV or Excel file.

  3. Map your file columns to the table columns.

  4. Click Import.

Start with a small dataset (5 to 10 rows) so you can see results quickly and understand the process before running larger batches.

Step 4: Configure your enrichment

Before running the enrichment, review the configuration:

Check your data providers

The template pre-selects providers, but you can adjust them:

  • Add providers for fallback options (waterfall enrichment)

  • Remove providers you do not need

  • Reorder providers to set priority (most trusted provider first)

If a required provider is not connected, TexAu prompts you to set it up in Settings > Integrations.

Verify input mapping

Confirm that the correct column is selected as your input data source. The template usually sets this up automatically.

Review output columns

Review which output columns the enrichment will populate. Uncheck any columns you do not need to keep your table focused.

Step 5: Run the enrichment

  1. Review your settings.

  2. Click Start Enrichment or Run.

TexAu begins processing your data immediately.

Step 6: Watch results in real time

As each row is enriched, results appear in your table. You will see:

  • Data populating in the output columns as each row completes

  • A progress indicator showing how many rows have been processed

  • Status updates for each row (processing, completed, or partially complete)

For a small dataset (5 to 10 rows), enrichment typically completes in seconds to a few minutes.

If one provider cannot find data for a row, TexAu automatically tries the next provider in the waterfall order. You get the best available result without any manual work.

Step 7: Review your enriched data

Once enrichment completes:

  • Columns that were empty are now populated with enriched data.

  • Cells that could not be filled remain empty. This is normal since not every provider has data for every record.

  • Scroll right to view all enriched columns.

Step 8: Next steps with your data

Export your data

  1. Click the Download or Export button.

  2. Choose your format (CSV, Excel, or JSON).

  3. Your enriched data downloads to your computer.

Set up a schedule

If you want to enrich data on a recurring basis:

  1. Click Schedule and set a frequency (daily, weekly, or monthly).

  2. TexAu runs the enrichment automatically on your schedule.

  3. Manage schedules in Settings > Schedules.

Refine and re-enrich

If some rows came back empty:

  • Try adding more providers to the waterfall

  • Check that your input data is formatted correctly

  • Try a different template with different data sources

Tips for best results

Clean your input data. Remove extra spaces, use consistent formatting, and make sure domains look like company.com (not Company.com Inc.).

Use multiple providers. Adding 2 to 3 providers per enrichment column improves data completeness through waterfall fallback.

Start small. Test with 5 to 10 rows first, then scale to larger datasets once you are confident in the results.

Troubleshooting

Enrichment started but nothing is happening.
Check the progress indicator. If it appears stuck after 5 or more minutes, refresh the page. The enrichment is likely still running in the background.

Some rows came back empty.
This is normal. Not every data provider has data for every record. Try adding more providers or checking that your input data is correct.

I got an error during enrichment.
Common causes:

  • Missing API keys: Go to Settings > Integrations and confirm your providers are connected.

  • API rate limits: Wait a few minutes and re-run.

  • Invalid input: Check that your input data is in the correct format for the column type.

The data looks incorrect.
Enrichment data depends on the accuracy of external providers. Try a different provider to compare results. If the issue persists, contact [email protected].
