Questions about this workflow
Does it infer a website domain when a file only names a company?
This workflow is for domains present in the upload. If only a company name is available, use Name to Domain Search first and confirm the correct domain.
What does Company Find return?
It looks up company data by domain. Review the returned profile against the source domain before relying on it.
