Analysis Flow stuck
Your Analysis Flow job isn't completing? Here's what to check.
Give it time
Complex analyses on large files can take several minutes. Before troubleshooting:
- Wait at least 5-10 minutes
- Check if the progress indicator is still moving
- Look for partial results in completed steps
Common issues
Large files
Very large Excel files take longer to process.
Solutions:
- Reduce file size (remove unnecessary columns/rows)
- Split into smaller datasets
- Process only the data you need
Complex analysis
Analyses with many calculations or comparisons take longer.
Try:
- Simplify your analysis prompt
- Break into multiple smaller analyses
- Process fewer files at once
Concurrent job limit
You can run up to 3 analyses simultaneously.
If you hit the limit:
- Wait for current jobs to complete
- Cancel jobs you don't need
- Queue requests for later
Checking for errors
- Open the Analysis Flow job
- Look at individual steps
- Click any step showing an error
- Read the error message for details
Common error types
| Error | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Timeout | Analysis took too long |
| Memory | File too large to process |
| Format | Unexpected data format |
| Missing data | Required columns not found |
Recovery options
Retry the analysis
- Cancel the stuck job
- Create a new analysis
- Use the same (or simplified) prompt
Try a smaller dataset
- Filter your Excel to fewer rows

- Re-upload and try again
Contact support
If analyses consistently fail:
- Note the job ID
- Save your analysis prompt

Testing large analyses
For complex analyses, start with a small sample (100-1000 rows) to verify the approach works, then scale up to the full dataset.
