a0deploy export error tenant config empty output fails

Not specified by the original author.

TL;DR: Click-ops tenants drift. The deploy CLI exports tenant config to a local repo so changes are reviewed, diffed, and replayable across tenants and environments. Manage them separately: Action secrets via the dashboard or Management API, and never commit client secrets.

Config as code

auth0-deploy-cli

npm install -g auth0-deploy-cli (or run via npx).

1. a0deploy export --format=yaml --output_folder=tenant-config: dumps actions, rules (legacy), connections, applications, APIs, email templates, etc. into a directory.
2. Commit it. Review diffs like code.
3. a0deploy import --input_file=tenant-config: applies to a tenant. Promote dev -> staging -> prod by importing the same directory.

What to keep in the repo

• Actions code (also keep the source in your normal repo; the export is the deployed artifact record).
• Connection configs, application settings, API definitions and permissions.
• Email templates, branding settings.
• Tenant settings (session lifetimes, attack protection thresholds).

Secrets

The export excludes secrets. Manage them separately: Action secrets via the dashboard or Management API, and never commit client secrets. Your CI needs a Management API token with the right scopes for the target tenant.

Terraform provider

If the team already speaks Terraform, the Auth0 Terraform provider manages the same resources declaratively with plan/apply and state. Pick ONE tool per tenant; mixing CLI and Terraform fights over state.

Workflow

• Change in dev tenant (dashboard or code) -> export -> diff -> PR -> import to staging -> test logins -> import to prod.
• Emergency dashboard changes get exported back the same day or they become mystery drift.

Checklist

• Every tenant reproducible from the repo plus secrets.
• No undocumented dashboard changes older than a day.

When to use this

• This covers exactly what the title says: Tenant config as code.
• You are setting this up for the first time, or auditing an existing setup.
• You want the key gotchas in one place before you start.

When not to use this

• You are doing a different workflow with Tenant; these steps are specific to the title above.
• You need the full reference docs; this is the short path, not the manual.

Compatibility

• Not pinned to a specific version; follows current Tenant behavior.

Auth0's deploy CLI tool docs describe export/import of tenant configuration. The Terraform provider is documented in Auth0's deployment docs. Verified against live docs 2026-09-26.

TL;DR

Fix this in the agent workflow for security questionnaire by acting on the exact message first: run a preflight check before the agent starts to export questionnaire responses to a customer portal (source reachable, inputs present, output location writable), then run with per-item error capture so one bad item is logged and skipped instead of ending the job. 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.

agent failed to complete export questionnaire responses to a customer portal

Use this when

• The operation in the agent workflow for security questionnaire fails with this exact message: agent failed to complete export questionnaire responses to a customer portal.
• 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 agent workflow for security questionnaire, 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: run a preflight check before the agent starts to export questionnaire responses to a customer portal (source reachable, inputs present, output location writable), then run with per-item error capture so one bad item is logged and skipped instead of ending the job. Verify: the preflight passes, the rerun completes, and any skipped item is named in the run log with its reason.
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 agent workflow for security questionnaire 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 agent workflow for security questionnaire 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 job had no preflight and no per-item isolation, so the first missing input or bad record failed the entire run instead of one item.

TL;DR

Fix this in benchmark export agent scraper by acting on the exact problem first: query the warehouse export directly and confirm the returned row count and date coverage before building benchmarks, retry a failed export as an export fault, and never publish a benchmark built on an empty scrape. Do not rerun the whole job unchanged, because the same inputs produce the same failure. Prove the fix on one response, batch or record set first, then rerun the full scope and reconcile the counts.

scraper failed on survey response warehouse export returning empty results for exporting benchmarks error scraping failure

Use this when

• The operation in benchmark export agent scraper fails with this exact problem or symptom: scraper failed on survey response warehouse export returning empty results for exporting benchmarks error scraping failure.
• The same failure repeats on retry with unchanged inputs.
• NPS follow-up, routing or reporting is blocked until this item completes.

Not for this skill when

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

Steps

1. Reproduce the failure with the smallest scope that still shows it in benchmark export agent scraper, and copy the full problem plus the response, contact or job involved into the run notes. Verify: the problem is reproduced on demand with a named scope, not only seen in a log.
2. Apply the specific fix for this problem: query the warehouse export directly and confirm the returned row count and date coverage before building benchmarks, retry a failed export as an export fault, and never publish a benchmark built on an empty scrape. Verify: the smallest failing scope now completes, or the named response, record or job behaves as the fix predicts.
3. Check the neighbouring responses, records or jobs that share the same config, segment 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. Rerun the original operation in benchmark export agent scraper on the previously failing scope, watching for the same problem rather than assuming success from a quiet log. Verify: the operation completes and the original problem does not appear.
5. Compare the result counts or status against the source in benchmark export agent scraper so a silent partial success is caught before sign off. Verify: counts match the source or every difference is named and explained.
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 problem, the fix applied and the evidence of success.

Why it happens

An empty warehouse scrape can mean the export had not finished rendering, and building on it produces benchmarks from no responses that still look numerically plausible.

Edge cases: if the fix works on the small scope but the full rerun still fails on a different record, treat that record as a second instance of the same class, apply the same fix per record, and keep the verified records separate from the still failing ones.
