TL;DR

Fix this in duplicate merge agent workflow by acting on the exact message first: refresh the session at merge start, write the survivor mapping to disk after every merge, and on re-authentication skip pairs whose mapping is already saved, because a repeated merge of the same pair can create a new duplicate. 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.

session expired mid-run - agent failed to merge duplicate account health records

Use this when

• The operation in duplicate merge agent workflow fails with this exact message or symptom: session expired mid-run - agent failed to merge duplicate account health records.
• The same failure repeats on retry with unchanged inputs.
• Scoring, alerting or routing 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 duplicate merge agent workflow, and copy the full message plus the account, measure 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: refresh the session at merge start, write the survivor mapping to disk after every merge, and on re-authentication skip pairs whose mapping is already saved, because a repeated merge of the same pair can create a new duplicate. Verify: the smallest failing scope now completes, or the named account, measure or job behaves as the fix predicts.
3. Check the neighbouring accounts, measures or jobs that share the same config, schema 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 duplicate merge 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 duplicate merge 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

Merges are not safe to blindly retry after an expiry, since the first attempt may have completed server side, and a saved mapping is the evidence that prevents a double merge.

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

duplicate merge 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 data itself is missing for the affected accounts, record that as a data gap rather than scoring the accounts as zero.

Compatibility: duplicate merge 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

Long runs outlive short-lived credentials. If the agent authenticates once at start and scores for hours, expiry mid-run is arithmetic, not bad luck. Refresh before the run, track expiry inside the run, and re-authenticate at batch boundaries so a refresh never interrupts an account write halfway.

auth token expired mid-health-score run: agent failed to refresh credentials

Use this when

• Run logs show authentication failures starting partway through, not at launch
• Credential lifetime is shorter than the run duration
• Early accounts score fine and later accounts fail

Not for this skill when

• The credential was revoked or its permissions were reduced
• All calls fail from the start, indicating wrong credentials entirely

Steps

1. Measure credential lifetime and the run's duration distribution. Verify: the overlap (runs longer than credential life) is quantified
2. Check where the code obtains credentials: once at start, per call, or cached without expiry awareness. Verify: the acquisition pattern that guarantees mid-run expiry is located
3. Implement refresh at start and at batch boundaries, keyed to the expiry timestamp minus a safety margin. Verify: a long test run crosses an expiry boundary without a failed call
4. Make account scoring idempotent so a batch retried after re-authentication does not double-write. Verify: retried batches produce one score per account
5. Alert on refresh failures as their own signal, separate from scoring failures. Verify: credential problems page as credential problems, with time to act

A related phrasing for the same underlying problem.

Compatibility: Compatibility: OAuth-based API access from agent runtimes (Salesforce, HubSpot, warehouse connectors), current versions.

Why it happens

Expiry mid-run is a scheduling fact: any run longer than the credential's life will hit it deterministically. The fix is architectural (refresh inside the run's rhythm, idempotent batches) rather than asking for longer-lived credentials, which trades a reliability bug for a security problem.

Edge cases / pitfalls

• Refresh at batch boundaries, not mid-account, or a failed refresh strands a half-written account.
• Some providers rotate the refresh credential on use. Persist the rotated value immediately or the next run starts dead.
• A safety margin of a few minutes before expiry covers clock differences between the agent host and the API.

Fix this in health score agent workflow by acting on the exact message first: refresh the session credential at the start of the recalculation, checkpoint each batch of scored accounts outside the session, and re-authenticate and resume from the last batch when an expiry occurs instead of losing the run. 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.
