Einstein Report Formula Generation Error Messages
If Einstein’s response doesn’t meet your expectations, you can generate another response by entering a new request. On the other hand, if your request doesn’t provide the information needed, Einstein lets you know. Either way, just try again, phrasing your request differently.
Required Editions
| Available in: Lightning Experience. |
| Available in: Enterprise, Performance, Unlimited, and Developer Editions with Einstein 1 Sales Edition and Einstein 1 Service Edition. |
If the description in your request to Einstein doesn’t provide enough information or the relevant information needed for the context, Einstein provides an error message.
| Common Error Messages | Problem and Solution |
|---|---|
| I couldn't find the field and function combination that matches your request. Try describing the calculation using different words. | Einstein couldn’t match your words with fields or functions needed to build a formula. To review what’s available, click the Fields and Functions tabs inside the formula builder. |
| It looks like you want to apply the [X] function to the [Y] field, but that's a [Z type] field. Try your request again, but use different words to describe the field and function combination. | The function that Einstein identified from your request isn’t supported with the type of data in the field. For example, Einstein can’t apply the MAX function to a text field. Adjust the wording in your request so that Einstein can identify the fields and functions appropriate for your formula. |
| I couldn't generate a formula. Try describing the calculation using different words. | Your request didn’t provide enough information for Einstein to map your words to available fields and functions. Be sure to describe an operation or function that uses fields in the report’s objects. |
| I can't complete your request because you reached the character limit. Shorten your request and try again. | Einstein has a limit on the size of the request for report formula generation. Try another request with fewer words. |
| I couldn’t understand your request. Describe a calculation related to the report. | Your request is unrelated to formula generation. Be sure to describe an operation or function that uses fields in the report’s objects. |
| Something went wrong. Change your request and try again. | Einstein couldn’t generate a formula for an unspecified reason. Try rephrasing your request. |
| Something went wrong. Try again. | Something unexpected happened during the formula generation process. You can try the same words again, but most likely, rephrasing your request is best. |
