Troubleshooting

What this is

This page helps you debug Hookshot by symptom, starting with the fastest checks.

When to use it

Use it whenever a Protege does not run, runs unexpectedly, or produces the wrong outcome.

Symptom

My Protege never runs

Fastest checks

• Confirm the source event appears in Event Feed

• Confirm the integration is connected

• Confirm Trigger Access is ready

Likely causes

• No event reached Hookshot

• Wrong trigger source

• Wrong connection scope

Where to look in Event Feed

Look for whether the event appears at all and whether any Protege was associated with it.

Where to look in Audit

If no run exists, the issue is likely earlier in the path than Audit.

How to fix

Reconnect or repair the integration, confirm the live source, and retest with a known-safe event.

Symptom

The event appears, but the Protege is skipped

Fastest checks

• Review the Protege description

• Review readiness blockers

• Confirm the event should really match the workflow

Likely causes

• The Protege is too narrow

• The wrong trigger path is connected

• Required access is incomplete

Where to look in Event Feed

Inspect the event entry and the associated Protege status.

Where to look in Audit

A skipped event may not produce the run result you expected, so Event Feed is the faster signal here.

How to fix

Tighten or clarify the Protege description, then verify the trigger source and required access.

Symptom

It says dispatching for too long

Fastest checks

• Refresh Event Feed after a short wait

• Check whether Audit shows a corresponding run

Likely causes

• The event is still processing

• The integration or workflow path needs attention

Where to look in Event Feed

Check whether the item progresses to a final status.

Where to look in Audit

Look for a matching run for the same Protege.

How to fix

If the state does not settle, review the integration health, recent setup changes, and rerun a controlled test.

Symptom

The Protege ran, but the result is wrong

Fastest checks

• Review the Protege description

• Confirm the destination boundary

• Confirm Tool Access covers the intended action path

Likely causes

• The Protege is too broad

• The wrong destination or scope is configured

• The workflow needs clearer constraints

Where to look in Event Feed

Confirm the correct source event triggered the run.

Where to look in Audit

Inspect the run outcome and compare it to the expected result.

How to fix

Narrow the scope, add stronger constraints, and retest with a safe event.
