## TL;DR

For tagging-style facts the policy does not use yet, add a declare statement with the allowed type signature before writing them.

## Steps

1. When an Oso Cloud fact write is rejected, check the predicate against your policy: the argument count and types must match how the rule uses it, and the predicate name must be spelled exactly as in the policy. For tagging-style facts the policy does not use yet, add a declare statement with the allowed type signature before writing them.

## When to use

## When not to use

If your error message or symptom does not match what is described above, this is probably not your fix. Search for your exact error text instead of forcing this one to fit.

## Versions

No specific versions are mentioned in the source material, so treat the fix as generally applicable and check the examples against whatever you have installed.

## Why this happens

The original report does not dig into a root cause. It documents the symptom and the fix that resolved it.
