Clay CI Integration

Overview

Set up CI/CD pipelines for Clay-powered applications. Since Clay is a web platform (not a local service), CI focuses on: (1) testing webhook handler code, (2) validating data transformation logic, (3) checking enrichment data schema compliance, and (4) optional live integration tests against Clay's API.

Prerequisites

• GitHub repository with Actions enabled
• Clay webhook URL stored as GitHub secret
• Node.js/Python project with test framework

Instructions

Step 1: Create GitHub Actions Workflow

# .github/workflows/clay-integration.yml
name: Clay Integration Tests

on:
  push:
    branches: [main]
  pull_request:
    branches: [main]

env:
  CLAY_WEBHOOK_URL: ${{ secrets.CLAY_WEBHOOK_URL }}
  CLAY_API_KEY: ${{ secrets.CLAY_API_KEY }}

jobs:
  unit-tests:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - uses: actions/setup-node@v4
        with:
          node-version: '20'
          cache: 'npm'
      - run: npm ci
      - run: npm test -- --coverage
        env:
          # No Clay credentials needed for unit tests (use mocks)
          CLAY_WEBHOOK_URL: "https://mock.webhook.test"

  data-validation:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - uses: actions/setup-node@v4
        with:
          node-version: '20'
          cache: 'npm'
      - run: npm ci
      - name: Validate input data schemas
        run: npx tsx scripts/validate-clay-schemas.ts
      - name: Check for PII in test fixtures
        run: |
          if grep -rn '@gmail.com\|@yahoo.com\|@hotmail.com' test/fixtures/; then
            echo "ERROR: Real email addresses found in test fixtures"
            exit 1
          fi

  integration-tests:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    if: github.event_name == 'push' && github.ref == 'refs/heads/main'
    needs: [unit-tests]
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - uses: actions/setup-node@v4
        with:
          node-version: '20'
          cache: 'npm'
      - run: npm ci
      - name: Test webhook connectivity
        run: |
          HTTP_CODE=$(curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}" \
            -X POST "$CLAY_WEBHOOK_URL" \
            -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
            -d '{"_ci_test": true, "_run_id": "${{ github.run_id }}"}')
          if [ "$HTTP_CODE" != "200" ]; then
            echo "Webhook connectivity check failed: HTTP $HTTP_CODE"
            exit 1
          fi

Step 2: Configure Secrets

# Store Clay credentials as GitHub secrets
gh secret set CLAY_WEBHOOK_URL --body "https://app.clay.com/api/v1/webhooks/your-id"
gh secret set CLAY_API_KEY --body "clay_ent_your_key"  # Enterprise only

Step 3: Write Unit Tests for Clay Handlers

// tests/clay-handler.test.ts
import { describe, it, expect, vi } from 'vitest';
import { processEnrichedData, validateWebhookPayload } from '../src/clay/handler';

describe('Clay Webhook Handler', () => {
  it('should process enriched data correctly', () => {
    const payload = {
      email: 'jane@stripe.com',
      company_name: 'Stripe',
      job_title: 'VP Engineering',
      employee_count: 8000,
      industry: 'Financial Technology',
    };

    const result = processEnrichedData(payload);
    expect(result.icp_score).toBeGreaterThan(0);
    expect(result.company_name).toBe('Stripe');
  });

  it('should reject payloads missing required fields', () => {
    const invalid = { company_name: 'Test Corp' }; // Missing email
    expect(() => validateWebhookPayload(invalid)).toThrow('Missing required field: email');
  });

  it('should handle empty enrichment gracefully', () => {
    const partial = {
      email: 'test@unknown.com',
      company_name: null,
      job_title: null,
      employee_count: null,
    };

    const result = processEnrichedData(partial);
    expect(result.icp_score).toBe(0);
    expect(result.enrichment_complete).toBe(false);
  });
});

describe('Input Validation', () => {
  it('should filter personal email domains', () => {
    const rows = [
      { domain: 'stripe.com', email: 'ceo@stripe.com' },
      { domain: 'gmail.com', email: 'user@gmail.com' },
    ];

    const valid = rows.filter(r => !['gmail.com', 'yahoo.com'].includes(r.domain));
    expect(valid).toHaveLength(1);
    expect(valid[0].domain).toBe('stripe.com');
  });
});

Step 4: Add Data Schema Validation

// scripts/validate-clay-schemas.ts
import { z } from 'zod';

const ClayEnrichedRowSchema = z.object({
  email: z.string().email(),
  domain: z.string().min(3),
  company_name: z.string().nullable(),
  job_title: z.string().nullable(),
  employee_count: z.number().nullable(),
  industry: z.string().nullable(),
  linkedin_url: z.string().url().nullable(),
});

const ClayWebhookInputSchema = z.object({
  domain: z.string().min(3).refine(d => d.includes('.'), 'Must contain a dot'),
  first_name: z.string().min(1),
  last_name: z.string().min(1),
  email: z.string().email().optional(),
  source: z.string().optional(),
});

// Validate test fixtures match expected schemas
console.log('Validating Clay schemas...');
// Run against test fixtures, mock data, etc.
console.log('All schemas valid.');

Step 5: Credit Budget Guard in CI

# Add to workflow to prevent accidental high-volume runs
- name: Check credit budget
  run: |
    MAX_ROWS=10  # CI should never enrich more than 10 test rows
    ROWS_TO_SEND=$(wc -l < test/fixtures/test-leads.csv)
    if [ "$ROWS_TO_SEND" -gt "$MAX_ROWS" ]; then
      echo "ERROR: Test fixture has $ROWS_TO_SEND rows (max: $MAX_ROWS)"
      echo "Integration tests should use minimal data to avoid credit waste"
      exit 1
    fi
