Debugging an Incident

Wherever incidents are listed, you can use the Debug button to find information to help you troubleshoot the incident. The information that you see depends on the type of source. Debug is not available for all source types.

Data Warehouses and Query Engine Sources

When you debug an incident from a data warehouse or query engine source, you will use an automatically generated SQL query that,

  • Filters data down to the specific Window and Segment where the incident occurred.
  • Orders records based on how far away they are from being allowed, returning the most prominent outliers at the top.

Troubleshooting Outliers

Although outliers are not the only cause of incidents, they are a good starting point for troubleshooting.

You can use Load Samples to upload sample data and view the query results in the Debug window. Or, you can copy the query text into your preferred developer environment and modify it as needed.

Debugging with SQL

SQL query is only available for debugging sources where Validio uses SQL pushdown for validation, which is common for data warehouse and query engines.
