A conversation in my history shows a question mark. What does it mean?
A question mark is the Action Required status: Vincent has paused because it needs something from you before it can finish. Open the conversation to see what it is waiting for, most often a clarifying question about your request, or a document that has not been added yet. Reply in the conversation so Vincent can carry on.
A conversation in my history shows an exclamation mark. What do I do?
An exclamation mark is the Error encountered status: Vincent could not complete the conversation. Open the conversation and run your query again. If it fails a second time, contact vLex Support and include the conversation name and the workflow you were running, so our team can trace it.
