auth token expired mid-run agent failed to export engagement results for managers error session expired failure

TL;DR

Fix this in engagement results export agent by acting on the exact problem first: write each manager export reference to a run file right after its file is produced, refresh the sign in session between manager groups, and on resume skip managers already in that file so no manager receives a duplicate or conflicting export. Do not rerun the same survey, report or export unchanged, because the same inputs produce the same failure. Prove the fix on one survey, team or department first, then rerun the full scope and reconcile the results.

Use this when

• The operation in engagement results export agent fails with this exact problem: auth token expired mid-run agent failed to export engagement results for managers error session expired failure.
• The same failure repeats on retry with unchanged inputs.
• A survey launch, results dashboard, manager report or action plan is blocked until this is resolved.

Not for this skill when

• The notice is a platform outage from the vendor. Resolve that first, then return here if this problem remains.
• The operation completes and you only disagree with an interpretation call such as which driver to prioritise. That is a people analytics judgement, not this failure.

Steps

1. Reproduce the failure on one named survey, team or department in engagement results export agent and record the full problem text plus the survey, team or period involved. Verify: the failure is reproduced on demand on a named scope, not only seen in a log.
2. Apply the specific fix for this problem: write each manager export reference to a run file right after its file is produced, refresh the sign in session between manager groups, and on resume skip managers already in that file so no manager receives a duplicate or conflicting export. Verify: the single failing survey, team or department now behaves as the fix predicts, or the corrected value is visible on the record.
3. Check neighbouring surveys, teams or departments that share the same distribution list, roster sync or dashboard, because this class of failure rarely affects only one group. Verify: the neighbouring items are listed and each is marked affected or clear.
4. Rerun the original operation in engagement results export agent 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.
5. Compare the result against the source of truth, the raw response record, the HR roster record or the survey platform record, so a silent partial success is caught. Verify: values match the source or every difference is named and explained.
6. Record the fix, the triggering input and the verification result on the survey run log so the next occurrence is recognised immediately. Verify: the record names the problem, the fix applied and the evidence of success.

Why it happens

The risky gap is expiry between producing a manager file and recording it, because the file exists while the agent believes that manager was never exported, so it produces a second version.

Edge cases

• The survey was reopened, the roster was resynced or a team was restructured after the failing run started. Refresh the survey state and reapply the fix against the current values, not the values from the failed run.
• The single group proof passes but the full rerun still fails on other groups. Treat each remaining failure as its own scope, because a shared distribution list or dashboard can hide more than one cause.
• The source systems disagree on the correct value. The raw response record governs response counts, the HR roster governs who was invited, and the platform record governs what was sent or shown; record which source won and why.

Compatibility: engagement results export agent at current versions, plus the survey platform, roster or reporting tool the query names; no extra tooling beyond access to the source records needed to verify results.
