Error in my scenario

:thinking: What is the problem?

Hi all,

I am new to make.com and learning to do automations. Hope someone can help me with the below.

My scenario was working fine now but since yesterday it started giving below error. The scenario was scheduled to run and no changes were made so not sure why this error is coming. I am unsure how to resolve this error.

I am seeing below error on 7th module (Dropbox - Download a file).

A required field is empty or in the wrong format

Validation failed for 1 parameter(s).

Missing value of required parameter ‘path’.

Code: BundleValidationError

I think the error happens when the output from module 2 is “ignore” and then the scenario should not proceed further because of the filter between step 2 and 3 but it still runs module 3 and then generate an error at module 7.

Thanks in advance.

:test_tube: What have you tried so far?

I tried running the scenario manually but it gives me the same error.

Hi Kinjal. Not being able to see the logic & inputs/outputs of the modules that worked, It’s hard to say what went wrong where. Based on your comment that it ran fine, then now it’s erroring out when no changes were made, I’d first look at the AI module prompting. There may be some ambiguity with that, so try to be as specific as possible. A lot of times it’s staring you in the face but you can’t see it because you’ve been looking at it so long. Looks like you’re seeing the operation fail at module 7 because there is no output from the 4th module. That said, I think the fix is between the AI module and the 2nd Dropbox module (4th mod).

Hey there,

can you show some screenshots showing how the modules are configured and data is being sent between them?

Assuming you mapped the search module output in the download module, then most likely the path wasn’t found at all.

Thank you for your reply.

If the output of module 2 is ignore then the search module and download module shouldn’t execute because of the filter between module 2 and 3.

I’ve shared the public scenario page with the original question so you should be able to see the configuration. But see attached screenshots of modules showing configuration.

Please let me know if you need any other details. Thank you again for looking into this for me.

Thanks

Please see the attached screenshots showing the module configurations. Hope that will help but let me know if you need any other details.

Thank you for looking into this.

We don’t have your connections so we can’t see the configurations on a shared scenario.

Can you also show inputs and outputs? Next best guess is a special symbol on the file name breaking the pathing.

I am attaching screenshots of outputs of module 2 for both the successful scenario (it was the last one that ran without error) and then with error. One crucial difference I have noticed is that the output comes up as "“type”: “IGNORE” (with " ") in the error runs. The successful ones have type: IGNORE (without " ").

I checked old history and they all were showing without " " so not sure if this is causing an error and if it is then how to resolve it?

The first screenshot shows gemini gave you a JSON as the output, while the second screenshot shows that the JSON is now parsed and you can access the variables inside. Yeah this will 100% cause issues downstream.

How can I resolve this? I don’t understand why the 1st screenshot gave the output as it is.

Thanks

Kinjal

Open the gemini module and check how its configured.

Please see the attached screenshots of the gemini module. As I mentioned before, nothing has been changed. The scenario was working fine for more than a month and then started giving this error.

Ok no. Toggle advanced settings in the bottom and change the response format to JSON.

The response format is already set to JSON. See below.
