# Automation Error Index

A structured, machine-readable catalogue of real error messages across automation and
AI-coding tools — **n8n, Make, Zapier, Power Automate, UiPath, Cursor, Claude Code**, and
agent frameworks (LangChain, CrewAI, AutoGen, OpenAI Agents SDK) — each with a one-line
cause, a concise fix, and a link to its source.

Maintained by [AutomateLab](https://automatelab.tech). Browse it as an interactive table at
**<https://automatelab.tech/products/datasets/automation-error-index/>**.

## Provenance (read before relying on a fix)

Entries come in two tiers, flagged by the `source` field:

- **`guide`** — maps to a full AutomateLab troubleshooting walkthrough we wrote and tested
  (`fix_url` links the guide).
- **`mined`** — sourced from public issue trackers, official docs, and community forums,
  drafted into a concise fix, and **pending maintainer review**. Each carries a `source_url`
  so you can verify the fix against its origin. Treat these as leads, not gospel, until
  reviewed.

The split (guide vs community) and live count are reflected in `errors.json`.

## Files

- `errors.json` — canonical dataset: `{ name, license, source, count, platforms, categories, errors[] }`.
- `dataset.csv` — flat CSV mirror for spreadsheets.

## Per-entry schema

| field | meaning |
|---|---|
| `id` | stable slug / anchor (`#<id>` on the web table) |
| `error` | the exact error string a user searches |
| `platform` | n8n, Make, Zapier, Power Automate, UiPath, Cursor, Claude Code, LangChain, CrewAI, AutoGen, OpenAI Agents SDK |
| `code` | error code if any (e.g. `429`, `CS0246`, `ECONNRESET`) |
| `versions` | affected version strings, if version-specific |
| `category` | auth, timeout, install, rate-limit, connectivity, schema, version, config, other |
| `cause` | one-line root cause |
| `fix_url` | link to the full guide (`guide` entries) |
| `fix_steps` | inline concise fix (`mined` entries) |
| `source_url` | the public source the entry was drawn from |
| `source` | `guide` or `mined` |
