Troubleshooting
When an automation fails or behaves unexpectedly, the pages in this section help you find out why. Use the debugger and Display a message step to inspect what's happening during a run, and the error handling guide to keep an automation running through expected failures.
Troubleshooting guides
Start with the debugger when you need to see what's happening during a run. Move on to error handling once you understand the failure and want the automation to react to it gracefully. The common errors reference covers specific error messages, what they mean, and how to fix each one.
Debug an automation
Use the in-builder error messages, debugger, run reports, and steps like Display a message and Add error metadata to find the cause of a failing automation.
Handle errors in an automation
Catch errors with Try / Catch, ignore them with Continue on error, handle empty loops gracefully, and get notified when runs fail.
Common errors
Browse common errors by category to find the cause and recommended fix for issues with installation, runs, and the desktop application.
