Developers can review guide issues from either the guide card for an individual guide or a list of all errors from the navigation panel.
View errors of a single guide
If a guide has an error, for example if a smart tip has been incorrectly flagged as a sticky guide, this will show on the guide card as an error, as in the image below.

You can click on the icon to display the error in the Guide Health modal.
Viewing all errors in your application
Clicking on the error link shows details about the reported error and any recommendations to resolve it. You can now make the necessary change to the guide to resolve the issue if needed.
Alternatively, you can also see all guide health issues by selecting the Check Guide Health icon located at the top of the console.
- Open Guide health modal from the heart button on the top right corner of the
console.
- The Guide health modal opens displaying the guide error. Click on the Fix
Guide button to go ahead and fix the issue.
- Clicking on the Fix guide button redirects you to the required location to fix the
error, which in this case, is the Activation conditions modal.There is also an OGL
guide up and running to provide instructions on how to fix the error.
p
- The guide instructs the user to assign values to undefined roles or delete the
condition. The user would like to assign a value to the role and clicks on the
pointed link. This redirects them to the required location, i.e. the Custom Roles
modal.
- Notice how the guide continues to this place as well, instructing the user on what must be done.
- The user now adds a value to the role and clicks on Save.
- The error is now fixed!
Note:
This is an example user flow and the behavior would be different based on the guide error that the user is trying to resolve.Known Issues/Expected Behavior
1. Expected Behavior:
- The “Fix Guide” option for “NOT_PUBLISHED_AND_LAUNCHED” guide errors
- Activate/Unarchive guide option under Fix guide for “GUIDE_BRANCHED_GUIDE_ERROR”
guide errors
Both the options would redirect the user to Guide health user documentation.
2. Known Issue: Currently, the documentation redirection for NOT_PUBLISHED_AND_LAUNCHED and GUIDE_BRANCHED_GUIDE_ERROR scrolls to the respective guide errors on the documentation. There can be scenario where an update of the documentation might make the scroll not work and redirect to the top of Guide health documentation.
