Testing Your Setup

1. Launch AgenticFlow
2. Verify AgentBay is available in the tools list
3. Test basic AgentBay functionality

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

API Key Authentication Failed

Symptoms: Access denied errors, Invalid API key messages, 401 Unauthorized

Cause: Invalid or expired API key

Solution:

• Verify API key is correct and active in AgentBay Console
• Check API key permissions and quotas
• Regenerate API key if expired or compromised
• Ensure API key is properly URL-encoded in SSE endpoint

Concurrent Instance Limit Exceeded

Symptoms: Resource allocation errors, Instance creation failures

Cause: Public beta limit of 10 concurrent instances reached

Solution:

• Wait for existing instances to complete or terminate them
• Optimize workflows to use fewer concurrent instances
• Consider upgrading to production plan for higher limits
• Monitor instance usage and implement resource pooling

Environment Session Lost

Symptoms: Session disconnection, State not persisted, Data loss

Cause: Network connectivity issues or session timeout

Solution:

• Use EXTERNALID parameter for persistent sessions
• Implement session restoration mechanisms
• Save work frequently to persistent storage
• Check network stability and connection quality

Screen Streaming Performance Issues

Symptoms: Lag in browser streaming, Poor video quality, Connection drops

Cause: Network bandwidth limitations or high latency

Solution:

• Check internet connection speed and stability
• Use lower quality settings for better performance
• Choose nearest edge location for better latency
• Optimize browser usage for streaming performance

Server Connection Failed

Symptoms: Red connection indicator, Server unreachable errors

Cause: Network connectivity or server configuration issues

Solution:

• Verify server endpoint URL is correct
• Check server authentication credentials
• Ensure server is running and accessible
• Review firewall and network settings

Tools Not Available

Symptoms: MCP tools not showing in workflow builder, Empty tools list

Cause: Server connection successful but tool discovery failed

Solution:

• Verify MCP server is properly configured
• Check server tool definitions and schemas
• Refresh connection in AgenticFlow dashboard
• Review server logs for tool registration errors

Workflow Execution Errors

Symptoms: Automation fails during MCP tool calls, Runtime errors

Cause: Tool parameter issues or server-side errors

Solution:

• Validate tool parameters in workflow editor
• Check required vs optional parameters
• Review execution logs for specific error messages
• Test MCP server independently outside AgenticFlow

Authentication Failures

Symptoms: Auth errors in logs, Unauthorized access messages

Cause: Incorrect authentication configuration

Solution:

• Verify API keys and tokens are correct
• Check authentication method matches server requirements
• Ensure credentials have necessary permissions
• Update expired authentication tokens

AgentBay not appearing in AgenticFlow

Symptoms: Server not listed, Tools not available

Cause: Configuration or installation issue

Solution:

• Verify configuration syntax
• Check AgentBay installation
• Restart AgenticFlow
• Check logs for error messages
