Action Debugger

Last updated: May 15, 2026

Use the Action Debugger to test whether actions trigger correctly and return the right data.

It helps you inspect the full action flow before you use it in live conversations.

Use Action Debugger to test action trigger logic and API output.

Use Simulator to test the full conversation flow around those actions.

Open the Action Debugger

  1. Go to Workspace → Integrations.

  2. Click Debug.

What to test

Enter a message that should trigger an action.

Use realistic examples from your workflow, such as:

  • checking order status

  • finding a customer record

  • looking up shipment details

  • canceling an order

What to inspect

The Action Debugger shows:

  • which action triggered

  • the API endpoint that was called

  • the parameters sent

  • the response returned by the API

In the example below, Aissist first calls getCustomerOrders, then calls getTrackingDetails.

Example Action Debugger view

Fix common issues

If the action does not trigger:

  • review the action trigger scenario

  • make sure the action name and description match the intended use case

  • make sure the action is linked to the right sub agent, if applicable

  • make sure the test input matches the expected trigger pattern

If the parameters are wrong:

  • improve the parameter names

  • improve the parameter descriptions

  • add clearer guidance about expected values

  • include exact formats, examples, or allowed values when needed

If the response is hard to use:

  • update the action instructions

  • define summarization in Response Processing to summarize the response

  • refine any Response Processing instructions

  • return only the fields Aissist needs when possible

When to use it

Use the Action Debugger whenever you:

  • create a new action

  • update an existing action

  • change an integration

  • troubleshoot unexpected action behavior

Best practice

Test each action with multiple realistic inputs.

Verify both the trigger and the returned data before you move into live workflows.

Once the action works here, test the full workflow in Simulator.
