agent timed out when agent tried to route an expansion signal to the accou

Not specified by the original author.

TL;DR

Fix this in Snowflake usage agent workflow by acting on the exact message first: split the Snowflake usage history query into account batches of about 250, pre-aggregate daily usage in the warehouse before the agent reads it, checkpoint each finished batch to disk, and resume the refresh from the last completed batch after any timeout. 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.

agent timed out querying Snowflake usage history for 3000 accounts expansion refresh stalled

Use this when

• The operation in Snowflake usage agent workflow fails with this exact message or symptom: agent timed out querying Snowflake usage history for 3000 accounts expansion refresh stalled.
• 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 Snowflake usage agent workflow, 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: split the Snowflake usage history query into account batches of about 250, pre-aggregate daily usage in the warehouse before the agent reads it, checkpoint each finished batch to disk, and resume the refresh from the last completed batch after any timeout. 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 Snowflake usage agent workflow 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 Snowflake usage agent workflow 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

One query covering thousands of accounts returns more rows than a single agent step can finish inside its time limit, so the refresh stalls with nothing saved.

How to fix - agent timed out querying Snowflake usage history for 3000 accounts expansion refresh stalled

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

Snowflake usage agent workflow troubleshooting for this failure

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.

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.

Compatibility: Snowflake usage agent workflow 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 franchise usage rollup agent workflow by acting on the exact message first: run the franchise rollup as a warehouse query grouped by parent account instead of one agent step per location, save the per location totals to disk, and let the agent read only the grouped result for scoring. 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.

Why it happens

Per location agent steps multiply runtime by location count, and large franchise families time out before the parent score is ever calculated.

Thread query: agent timed out rolling up franchise location usage into parent account scores

TL;DR

Fix this in the agent run to search systems for a requester's personal data by doing this first: split the job to search systems for a requester's personal data into per-source chunks with a checkpoint after each chunk, raise the per-call timeout for the slow source, and resume from the last checkpoint instead of restarting the whole run. 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 timed out while trying to search systems for a requester's personal data

Use this when

• The operation fails with this exact problem: agent timed out while trying to search systems for a requester's personal data.
• The same failure repeats on retry with unchanged inputs.
• An audit, review, or request is blocked until this item completes.

Not for this skill when

• The message is a platform outage notice or a general sign-in failure. Resolve that first, then return here if this problem 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 run to search systems for a requester's personal data, and copy the full message plus the item, account, or request involved into the run notes. Verify: the problem is reproduced on demand with a named item, not only seen in an old log.
2. Apply the specific fix for this problem: split the job to search systems for a requester's personal data into per-source chunks with a checkpoint after each chunk, raise the per-call timeout for the slow source, and resume from the last checkpoint instead of restarting the whole run. Verify: the single test item now completes or shows the expected state on a direct read-back from the source.
3. Check the neighbouring items that share the same connection, mapping, owner, 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 statuses against the source system 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 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.
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

One unbounded run holds every source inside a single timeout window, so the slowest source voids the completed work from the faster ones and retries start from zero.
