```bash theme={null}
deepline enrich --input leads.csv --output leads.enriched.csv --with 'result=attio_create_attribute:{"target":"objects","identifier":"{{identifier}}","title":"{{title}}","api_slug":"{{api_slug}}","type":"text"}' --json
```

<Tip>
  Map payload values to spreadsheet columns with `{{column_name}}` placeholders.
