expansion playbook error wrong play triggered for usage signal failure

Not specified by the original author.

TL;DR

Fix this in the expansion playbook selector by acting on the exact message first: review the play selection table so each signal type maps to its intended play for that segment, fix the usage signal row that pointed at the adoption play, and requeue the affected accounts on the corrected play. Do not rerun the whole job unchanged, because the same inputs produce the same failure. Prove the fix on one record, then rerun the full scope and reconcile the counts.

expansion playbook error wrong play triggered for usage signal failure

Use this when

• The operation in the expansion playbook selector fails with this exact message: expansion playbook error wrong play triggered for usage signal failure.
• The same failure repeats on retry with unchanged inputs.
• A run, import, export or alert is blocked until this item completes.

Not for this skill when

• The message is a permission or platform outage notice. 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 expansion playbook selector, and copy the full message plus the record, account or list involved into the run notes. Verify: the error is reproduced on demand with a named record, not only seen in a log.
2. Apply the specific fix for this error: review the play selection table so each signal type maps to its intended play for that segment, fix the usage signal row that pointed at the adoption play, and requeue the affected accounts on the corrected play. Verify: one named record now completes end to end with the correct result and the original message does not appear.
3. Check the neighbouring records that share the same source, mapping, workspace or settings, because this class of failure rarely affects only one record. Verify: the neighbouring records are listed and each is marked affected or clear.
4. Compare the result counts, fields or alerts against the source in the expansion playbook selector 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 expansion playbook selector 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 record so the next occurrence is recognised immediately. Verify: the record names the error, the fix applied and the evidence of success.

Why it happens

Play selection was a lookup keyed loosely by signal name, and similar signal names resolved to the wrong play.

How to fix this failure in the expansion playbook selector

The how-to phrasing for the same failure. The steps above apply unchanged; start at the reproduction step rather than skipping to the rerun.

Troubleshooting this failure in the expansion playbook selector

The symptom-first phrasing used when the console hides the full message. Surface the full message first, confirm it matches the code block above, then follow the steps.

Compatibility: the expansion playbook selector at current versions, plus the platform API or console the query names; no extra tooling beyond the source system access needed to verify counts.

TL;DR

Fix this in Totango by acting on the exact message first: check the Totango task contact is still at the account before assigning the expansion play, flag accounts whose champion has left for owner research instead of sending the play, reassign to a current active contact, and confirm the play owner received a response path that exists. Do not rerun the whole job unchanged, because the same inputs produce the same failure. Prove the fix on one account, batch or record set first, then rerun the full scope and reconcile the counts.

Totango task error expansion play assigned after champion left account no owner response

Use this when

• The operation in Totango fails with this exact message or symptom: Totango task error expansion play assigned after champion left account no owner response.
• The same failure repeats on retry with unchanged inputs.
• Expansion scoring, alerting or outreach 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 error 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 Totango, and copy the full message plus the account, signal or job involved into the run notes. Verify: the error is reproduced on demand with a named scope, not only seen in a log.
2. Apply the specific fix for this error: check the Totango task contact is still at the account before assigning the expansion play, flag accounts whose champion has left for owner research instead of sending the play, reassign to a current active contact, and confirm the play owner received a response path that exists. Verify: the smallest failing scope now completes, or the named account, signal or job behaves as the fix predicts.
3. Check the neighbouring accounts, signals or jobs that share the same config, schema or source, 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 Totango 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.
5. Compare the result counts, scores or status against the source in Totango 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 error, the fix applied and the evidence of success.

Why it happens

Plays keep the contact captured when the play was designed, and a departed champion leaves the task assigned to someone who can never respond.

Edge cases

• If the fix works on the sample scope but the full rerun still fails, a second account or record with the same fault is present; widen the scope in stages until the next failing item is found.
• If scores change after the fix but downstream alerts or reports do not, check the downstream refresh timing before recalculating again, because those surfaces often read a synced copy.
• If the source information itself is missing for the affected accounts, record that as a source gap rather than scoring the accounts as zero.

Fix this in Vitally by acting on the exact message first: fix the Vitally segment criteria so the enterprise playbook only matches accounts in the enterprise revenue and seat bands, move the misrouted SMB account to the SMB playbook, retest playbook assignment for one account in each band, and confirm the steps sent match the account size.

Why it happens

Playbook routing inherits segment definitions, and a segment whose upper band was left open sends enterprise steps to every larger or miscoded SMB account.
