Loopio import error answer library entry not found security questionnaire

Not specified by the original author.

TL;DR

Fix this in the Loopio answer library import by acting on the exact message first: in Loopio check the autofill source mapping for the affected questions, re-link each question to the current library entry ID instead of the retired entry name, refresh the library index, and rerun autofill on one question first. Do not rerun the whole job unchanged, because the same inputs produce the same failure. Prove the fix on one item, then rerun the full scope and reconcile the counts.

answer library entry not found

Use this when

• The operation in the Loopio answer library import fails with this exact message: answer library entry not found.
• The same failure repeats on retry with unchanged inputs.
• A review, export or check is blocked until this item completes.

Not for this skill when

• The message is a permission or outage notice from the platform. Resolve that first, then return here if this error remains.
• The operation completes and you only disagree with its output. That is a quality review, not this failure.

Steps

1. Reproduce the failure with the smallest scope that still shows it in the Loopio answer library import, and copy the full message plus the questionnaire, answer or evidence item involved into the run notes. Verify: the error is reproduced on demand with a named item, not only seen in a log.
2. Apply the specific fix for this error: in Loopio check the autofill source mapping for the affected questions, re-link each question to the current library entry ID instead of the retired entry name, refresh the library index, and rerun autofill on one question first. Verify: the test question fills with the current approved answer instead of staying blank.
3. Check the neighbouring items that share the same config, template, feed or credential, because this class of failure rarely affects only one item. Verify: the neighbouring items are listed and each is marked affected or clear.
4. Compare the result counts, decisions or alerts against the source in the Loopio answer library import so a silent partial success is caught before sign off. Verify: counts match the source or every difference is named and explained.
5. Rerun the original operation in the Loopio answer library import on the previously failing scope, watching for the same message rather than assuming success from a quiet log. Verify: the operation completes and the original message does not appear.
6. Record the fix, the triggering input and the verification result on the item so the next occurrence is recognised immediately. Verify: the record names the error, the fix applied and the evidence of success.

Why it happens

autofill looked up entries by a name that was retired during a library cleanup, so the lookup found nothing and left the answer blank without an error.

Variant phrasings

The verbatim form searchers paste from the terminal or console. Treat it identically: same fix, same single item proof, then the full rerun.

Compatibility: the Loopio answer library import at current versions, plus the platform API or console the query names; no extra tooling beyond a text editor and the source system access needed to verify counts.

TL;DR

Fix this in the Loopio answer library by acting on the exact message first: in Loopio compare the duplicate retention answers against the current retention policy, keep the matching entry as canonical, archive the other, and refresh autofill so only the canonical entry can fill. Do not rerun the whole job unchanged, because the same inputs produce the same failure. Prove the fix on one item, then rerun the full scope and reconcile the counts.

Loopio library error duplicate answers with different retention periods both active

Use this when

• The operation in the Loopio answer library fails with this exact message: Loopio library error duplicate answers with different retention periods both active.
• The same failure repeats on retry with unchanged inputs.
• A review, export or check is blocked until this item completes.

Not for this skill when

• The message is a permission or outage notice from the platform. Resolve that first, then return here if this error remains.
• The operation completes and you only disagree with its output. That is a quality review, not this failure.

2. Apply the specific fix for this error: in Loopio compare the duplicate retention answers against the current retention policy, keep the matching entry as canonical, archive the other, and refresh autofill so only the canonical entry can fill. Verify: library search for the retention question returns one active answer matching the policy periods.
3. Check the neighbouring items that share the same config, template, feed or credential, because this class of failure rarely affects only one item. Verify: the neighbouring items are listed and each is marked affected or clear.
4. Compare the result counts, decisions or alerts against the source in the Loopio answer library so a silent partial success is caught before sign off. Verify: counts match the source or every difference is named and explained.
5. Rerun the original operation in the Loopio answer library on the previously failing scope, watching for the same message rather than assuming success from a quiet log. Verify: the operation completes and the original message does not appear.
6. Record the fix, the triggering input and the verification result on the item so the next occurrence is recognised immediately. Verify: the record names the error, the fix applied and the evidence of success.

Why it happens

the same question was answered twice in different years and both entries stayed active, so autofill picked between conflicting retention periods at random.

TL;DR

Fix this in the questionnaire answer update step by acting on the exact message first: lock customer specific answers against library overwrite by tagging them customer specific, skip tagged answers during any library refresh, and report any tagged answer a refresh tried to change. Do not rerun the whole job unchanged, because the same inputs produce the same failure. Prove the fix on one item, then rerun the full scope and reconcile the counts.

questionnaire agent overwrote a customer specific answer with a generic library answer

Use this when

• The operation in the questionnaire answer update step fails with this exact message: questionnaire agent overwrote a customer specific answer with a generic library answer.
• The same failure repeats on retry with unchanged inputs.
• A review, export or check is blocked until this item completes.

2. Apply the specific fix for this error: lock customer specific answers against library overwrite by tagging them customer specific, skip tagged answers during any library refresh, and report any tagged answer a refresh tried to change. Verify: the customer specific answer keeps its tailored text after a library refresh.
3. Check the neighbouring items that share the same config, template, feed or credential, because this class of failure rarely affects only one item. Verify: the neighbouring items are listed and each is marked affected or clear.

6. Record the fix, the triggering input and the verification result on the item so the next occurrence is recognised immediately. Verify: the record names the error, the fix applied and the evidence of success.

Why it happens

a generic library refresh wrote the standard answer over a deliberately tailored one because nothing marked the answer as customer specific.
