questionnaire error translated questions matched to wrong English library answers

TL;DR

Fix this in the questionnaire answer matching by acting on the exact message first: match translated questions by their question ID from the source template instead of by translated text, reassign any answer matched by text alone for review, and rerun the fill by ID. 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.

Use this when

• The operation in the questionnaire answer matching fails with this exact message: questionnaire error translated questions matched to wrong English library answers.
• The same failure repeats on retry with unchanged inputs.
• A review, export or check is blocked until this item completes.

Not for this skill when

• The message is a permission or 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. That is a quality review, not this failure.

Steps

1. Reproduce the failure with the smallest scope that still shows it in the questionnaire answer matching, and copy the full message plus the questionnaire, answer or evidence item involved into the run notes. Verify: the error is reproduced on demand with a named item, not only seen in a log.
2. Apply the specific fix for this error: match translated questions by their question ID from the source template instead of by translated text, reassign any answer matched by text alone for review, and rerun the fill by ID. Verify: each translated question holds the answer written for its own question ID.
3. Check the neighbouring items that share the same config, template, feed 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 alerts against the source in the questionnaire answer matching 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 in the questionnaire answer matching 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.
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

text matching compared translations against English answers with similar wording, so near duplicate questions received each others answers.

The how-to phrasing for the same failure in the questionnaire answer matching. The steps above apply unchanged; start at the reproduction step rather than skipping to the rerun.

Compatibility: the questionnaire answer matching at current versions, plus the platform API or console the query names; no extra tooling beyond a text editor and the source system access needed to verify counts.
