Exa Websets Enrichment

Blocks for enriching webset items with additional data using Exa's enrichment API.

Exa Cancel Enrichment

What it is

Cancel a running enrichment operation

How it works

This block stops a running enrichment operation on a webset. Items already enriched before cancellation retain their enrichment data, but remaining items will not be processed.

Use this when an enrichment is taking too long, producing unexpected results, or is no longer needed. The block returns the approximate number of items enriched before cancellation.

Inputs

Input	Description	Type	Required
webset_id	The ID or external ID of the Webset	str	Yes
enrichment_id	The ID of the enrichment to cancel	str	Yes

Outputs

Output	Description	Type
error	Error message if the operation failed	str
enrichment_id	The ID of the canceled enrichment	str
status	Status after cancellation	str
items_enriched_before_cancel	Approximate number of items enriched before cancellation	int
success	Whether the cancellation was successful	str

Possible use case

Cost Control: Stop enrichments that are exceeding budget or taking too long.

Error Handling: Cancel enrichments producing incorrect results to fix configuration.

Priority Changes: Stop lower-priority enrichments to free resources for urgent tasks.

Exa Create Enrichment

What it is

Create enrichments to extract additional structured data from webset items

How it works

This block creates an enrichment task that extracts specific data from each webset item using AI. You define what to extract via a description, and the enrichment runs against all current and future items in the webset.

Enrichments support various output formats including text, dates, numbers, and predefined options. You can apply enrichments to existing items immediately or configure them to run only on new items.

Inputs

Input	Description	Type	Required
webset_id	The ID or external ID of the Webset	str	Yes
description	What data to extract from each item	str	Yes
title	Short title for this enrichment (auto-generated if not provided)	str	No
format	Expected format of the extracted data	"text" \| "date" \| "number" \| "options" \| "email" \| "phone"	No
options	Available options when format is 'options'	List[str]	No
apply_to_existing	Apply this enrichment to existing items in the webset	bool	No
metadata	Metadata to attach to the enrichment	Dict[str, Any]	No
wait_for_completion	Wait for the enrichment to complete on existing items	bool	No
polling_timeout	Maximum time to wait for completion in seconds	int	No

Outputs

Output	Description	Type
error	Error message if the operation failed	str
enrichment_id	The unique identifier for the created enrichment	str
webset_id	The webset this enrichment belongs to	str
status	Current status of the enrichment	str
title	Title of the enrichment	str
description	Description of what data is extracted	str
format	Format of the extracted data	str
instructions	Generated instructions for the enrichment	str
items_enriched	Number of items enriched (if wait_for_completion was True)	int
completion_time	Time taken to complete in seconds (if wait_for_completion was True)	float

Possible use case

Data Extraction: Extract specific fields like founding dates, employee counts, or contact info from company profiles.

Classification: Categorize items into predefined buckets using the options format.

Sentiment Analysis: Analyze sentiment or tone from article content or reviews.

Exa Delete Enrichment

What it is

Delete an enrichment from a webset

How it works

This block removes an enrichment configuration from a webset. The enrichment will no longer be applied to new items, but existing enrichment data on items is not deleted.

Use this to clean up enrichments that are no longer needed or to remove misconfigured enrichments before creating corrected ones.

Inputs

Input	Description	Type	Required
webset_id	The ID or external ID of the Webset	str	Yes
enrichment_id	The ID of the enrichment to delete	str	Yes

Outputs

Output	Description	Type
error	Error message if the operation failed	str
enrichment_id	The ID of the deleted enrichment	str
success	Whether the deletion was successful	str

Possible use case

Configuration Cleanup: Remove enrichments that are no longer relevant to your data needs.

Reconfiguration: Delete misconfigured enrichments before creating corrected replacements.

Cost Optimization: Remove unnecessary enrichments to reduce processing costs on new items.

Exa Get Enrichment

What it is

Get the status and details of a webset enrichment

How it works

This block retrieves detailed information about a specific enrichment including its configuration, current status, and processing progress.

Use this to monitor enrichment progress, verify configuration, or troubleshoot issues with enrichment results. Returns the full enrichment specification along with timestamps.

Inputs

Input	Description	Type	Required
webset_id	The ID or external ID of the Webset	str	Yes
enrichment_id	The ID of the enrichment to retrieve	str	Yes

Outputs

Output	Description	Type
error	Error message if the operation failed	str
enrichment_id	The unique identifier for the enrichment	str
status	Current status of the enrichment	str
title	Title of the enrichment	str
description	Description of what data is extracted	str
format	Format of the extracted data	str
options	Available options (for 'options' format)	List[str]
instructions	Generated instructions for the enrichment	str
created_at	When the enrichment was created	str
updated_at	When the enrichment was last updated	str
metadata	Metadata attached to the enrichment	Dict[str, Any]

Possible use case

Progress Monitoring: Check enrichment status to monitor completion of large batch operations.

Configuration Verification: Retrieve enrichment details to verify settings before making changes.

Debugging: Investigate enrichment configuration when results don't match expectations.

Exa Update Enrichment

What it is

Update an existing enrichment configuration

How it works

This block modifies an existing enrichment's configuration. You can update the description, output format, available options, or metadata without recreating the enrichment.

Changes apply to future items; existing enrichment data is not reprocessed unless you explicitly re-run the enrichment on existing items.

Inputs

Input	Description	Type	Required
webset_id	The ID or external ID of the Webset	str	Yes
enrichment_id	The ID of the enrichment to update	str	Yes
description	New description for what data to extract	str	No
format	New format for the extracted data	"text" \| "date" \| "number" \| "options" \| "email" \| "phone"	No
options	New options when format is 'options'	List[str]	No
metadata	New metadata to attach to the enrichment	Dict[str, Any]	No

Outputs

Output	Description	Type
error	Error message if the operation failed	str
enrichment_id	The unique identifier for the enrichment	str
status	Current status of the enrichment	str
title	Title of the enrichment	str
description	Updated description	str
format	Updated format	str
success	Whether the update was successful	str

Possible use case

Refinement: Improve enrichment descriptions based on initial results to get better extractions.

Option Updates: Add or modify options for classification enrichments as needs evolve.

Metadata Management: Update enrichment metadata for organization or tracking purposes.
