How to troubleshoot errors on Copilot

In some instances, Copilot may not able to generate a response for your query. Here's how you can troubleshoot those errors and get your queries answered:

"I couldn't find any data for your request. Could you try a different query?"

This error is faced when you ask a query for which there is no corresponding data in your Fyle account.

For example,

  • You might ask "Show me the total reimbursable expenses over the last month", but there is no reimbursable expenses in your organization over the last month.

  • You might ask "Show me the total expense under Food category", but there is no expense made towards Food category in your organization.

In such cases, you can try to ask the query again with a longer time period or with a different set of parameters- where there is corresponding data existing in your Fyle account.

"I'm having trouble generating a result for your request. Your query might be too specific, too broad, or outside my scope. Could you please try again with a new query related to expenses or reports?"

This error is faced when you ask a query which is not related to expenses or reports, or performing any action in Fyle.

"I ran into a technical issue on my end and couldn't process your request. Could you please try again?"

This error is faced due to temporary network failures or technical glitches. Trying your query again in a few seconds should solve this error.
