Why did my Clay table stop adding new leads?
The Clay help pages give 4 common reasons. The first to rule out: A table can only hold so many rows, so a busy source can reach the limit and new leads stop arriving.
What causes it?
A table can only hold so many rows, so a busy source can reach the limit and new leads stop arriving.
In the Clay help:
Clay tables have a 50,000-row limit across all plans.
Sources - Clay Docs, read 2026-11-12.When a table reaches its limit, importing stops on its own, so the row count can go flat without anything else changing.
In the Clay help:
Clay imports records up to the limit and stops automatically.
Sources - Clay Docs, read 2026-11-12.A people search that reads companies from a filtered view only works through the companies the view shows, so changing the view's filters can change how many leads come in.
In the Clay help:
The source will only process the companies visible in that view.
Guide: Finding companies and people in Clay - Clay Docs, read 2026-11-12.A search can be capped at a set number of results, so a lower cap can bring in fewer leads than the search would find.
In the Clay help:
Set a maximum number of results per search (up to 50,000 records).

How do I check it myself?
Compare the table's row count with the table limit, since no error message appears when importing stops.
In the Clay help:
No error message is displayed.
Sources - Clay Docs, read 2026-11-12.If you added a new source to an existing table, check that the table has the columns that source needs.
In the Clay help:
When adding a new source to an existing table, you must have the appropriate columns set up.

How does Clay work with Feder?
- Connect Clay to Feder and it joins your Interest apps.
- When you connect Clay, Feder checks the connection straight away and shows Connected only when that check passes. If a reading cannot be taken later, Feder shows it as not read, never as zero.
Some numbers are too quiet to judge daily, such as a form filled in a few times a week. Until there is enough of your own history to judge a change, Feder says it is still learning and scores nothing, rather than guessing.
See whether you can trust the numbers in Clay, one of your Interest apps. Feder only reads. It never changes anything in Clay.
