agent timed out generating deletion certificates batch signing service slow

Not specified by the original author.

TL;DR

Fix this in deletion certificate agent by acting on the exact problem first: generate each certificate as its system deletion completes rather than in one end batch, queue signing requests and save the signed result per certificate, and retry only the unsigned certificates when the signing service recovers. Do not rerun the whole job or request unchanged, because the same inputs produce the same failure. Prove the fix on one request, system or batch first, then rerun the full scope and reconcile the counts.

agent timed out generating certificates - batch signing service slow

Use this when

• The operation in deletion certificate agent fails with this exact message or symptom: agent timed out generating certificates - batch signing service slow.
• The same failure repeats on retry with unchanged inputs.
• A privacy request, export, deletion or deadline 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 a legal interpretation or a policy choice. That is a privacy team decision, not this failure.

Steps

1. Reproduce the failure with the smallest scope that still shows it in deletion certificate agent, and copy the full message plus the request, system or record 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: generate each certificate as its system deletion completes rather than in one end batch, queue signing requests and save the signed result per certificate, and retry only the unsigned certificates when the signing service recovers. Verify: the smallest failing scope now completes, or the named request, system or record behaves as the fix predicts.
3. Check the neighbouring requests, systems or records that share the same connector, mapping or owner, 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 deletion certificate agent 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 or status against the source in deletion certificate agent so a silent partial success is caught before the request is closed. 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 request so the next occurrence is recognised immediately. Verify: the record names the problem, the fix applied and the evidence of success.

Why it happens

Batching every certificate to the end couples all of them to the slowest signing call, while per system generation leaves only the genuinely slow ones outstanding.

How to fix - agent timed out generating deletion certificates batch signing service slow to respond

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

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 small scope but the full rerun still fails on a different system, treat that system as a new instance, record its scope separately, and apply the same steps rather than widening the first fix blindly.
• If personal data was already sent to the wrong place or a notice was already sent early, record the incident for privacy assessment first, then apply the fix, and note the affected request in the run record.
• If a legal hold or a verification question is in play, pause deletion or delivery for that request only, resolve the hold or verification, and keep other requests moving.

Compatibility: deletion certificate agent at current versions, plus the admin console or API the query names; no extra tooling beyond the source system access needed to verify counts.

Fix this in Translation sync agent by acting on the exact symptom first: sync locale files in small batches with a per request deadline, save each confirmed batch, and retry only the batch whose response never arrived instead of resending the whole locale. Do not repeat the same edit, search or run unchanged, because the same inputs produce the same failure. Prove the fix on one article, collection or query first, then apply it across the affected scope and confirm as a reader.

Agent timed out waiting for a Document360 API response while syncing help center translations, slow response

Use this when

• Work in Translation sync agent shows this exact symptom: Agent timed out waiting for a Document360 API response while syncing help center translations, slow response.
• The same symptom repeats after a retry with unchanged inputs.
• Readers or support agents are blocked until this item is corrected.

Not for this skill when

• The help center platform itself is down or returning outage notices. Resolve that first, then return here if this symptom remains.
• The content is correct and you only want a style or tone rewrite. That is an editorial pass, not this fix.

Steps

1. Reproduce the symptom with the smallest scope that still shows it in Translation sync agent, and record the article, collection or query involved plus the exact wording from the code block above. Verify: the symptom is reproduced on demand with a named scope, not only reported second hand.
2. Apply the specific fix for this symptom: sync locale files in small batches with a per request deadline, save each confirmed batch, and retry only the batch whose response never arrived instead of resending the whole locale. Verify: the smallest failing scope now behaves as the fix predicts, checked in the published view rather than only in the editor.
3. Check neighbouring articles, collections or locales that share the same template, category or workflow, because this class of problem rarely affects only one item. Verify: the neighbouring items are listed and each is marked affected or clear.
4. Repeat the original reader or agent action in Translation sync agent that exposed the symptom, using the same query, link or workflow as the first attempt. Verify: the action completes and the original symptom does not appear.
5. Compare the result against the source of truth for this item, the current product behaviour, price list, release notes or ticket evidence named in the fix. Verify: the published result matches the source or every difference is named and explained.
6. Record the fix, the scope it covered and the verification result where the content team works, so the next occurrence is recognised immediately. Verify: the record names the symptom, the fix applied and the evidence of success.

Translation sync agent troubleshooting for this symptom

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

Why it happens

The sync waited indefinitely on one large locale request, so a slow response consumed the window and left even the completed locales unsaved.

Edge cases

• The symptom appears in one locale, collection or audience view only. Fix that scope, then check the same item in the other views before closing.
• A cached or indexed copy keeps showing the old state after the fix. Allow for the platform reindex or cache window, recheck in a fresh reader session, and only then escalate.
• Two items have near identical titles. Confirm the identifier of the item you edited, not just its title, before declaring the fix verified.

Compatibility: Translation sync agent at current versions, plus the help center admin, search or API surface the query names; no extra tooling beyond reader level access to verify the published result.
