Suggested Answer

"Execute Agent and Wait" does not wait for full agent execution and returns empty response

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by CU23020744-0 5

When running a scheduled Flow that calls Execute Agent and Wait, the action does not properly wait for the agent to finish its full execution.

Although the agent generates complete output (visible in Activities logs), the Flow receives an empty response payload.

This issue started occurring approximately two weeks ago. Previously, the same configuration worked correctly and returned full content to the Flow.


Actual Result
{
  "responses": [],
  "lastResponse": "",
  "isPlanFinished": false,
  "isExpectingInput": false
}

    hello, i had the same problem.
    The work around i found was to add some steps like compose or reading inside var the content of the agent result. It seemed to me that the "execute and wait" is more a "execute and asynchrone" wich start to wait when you need it inside a var.
     
    I stopped having problem when calling inside var setter action.
     
    But i confirme : default behavior we had some strange prob here too, no waiting and if there were few agent call like this, 1/3 were not called.

    Is there a way to solve this completely?
