Resolving Communication Automation Failures

Troubleshoot workflow errors, API failures, and delivery issues in ExtraaEdge CRM to ensure seamless automated communication via email, SMS, and WhatsApp.

Communication automation failures can occur due to various reasons -

• Incorrect Contact Details: Incorrect email addresses or phone numbers can lead to failures in message delivery (e.g., unapproved WhatsApp statuses or rejected emails and SMS).

• Campaign Limitations: Exceeding limits imposed by the platform can halt message dispatch.

• Technical Issues: Server problems can interrupt the automation pathways, causing delays or failures.

Systematic Approach to Debugging -

To resolve these issues, follow a systematic approach:

1. Check Trigger Conditions: Ensure that all trigger conditions are correctly configured and functioning for initiating the communication.

2. Verify Message Queues: Examine message queues to ensure all messages are being processed and no bottlenecks exist.

3. Monitor Automation Logs: Review automation logs to identify errors or warnings, which can provide insights into potential causes of disruptions.

4. Validate Contact Information: Regularly update and verify the contact database to minimize delivery failures due to incorrect information.

5. Adjust Campaign Settings: Review and modify campaign settings to respect platform limits and optimize the automation schedule.

6. Test Connectivity: Ensure that server connections are stable and secure to prevent technical disruptions.

7. Implement Fallback Mechanisms: Design and implement alternative communication methods in case of persistent failures.

8. System Testing and Validation: Regularly conduct system testing and validation to ensure all components of the communication channels are functioning as expected. This includes simulating various scenarios to test the robustness and reliability of the automation pathways.
