Facing Connection Issue in Copilot agents

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2
My Agent Requires to make a connection to salesforce, Upon receiving the user query and setting up the connection using connection manager successfully [Green check marks against all connections]. The Agent responds back with a connection error as follows:
 
Sorry, the bot can't talk for a while. It's something the bot's owner needs to address. Error code: ConnectorRequestFailure. Conversation ID: c80ec0cf-8183-4daa-ab51-53xxxxxxxxxx. Time (UTC): 3/6/2026 10:35:11 AM.
 
We tried new chat sessions, Uninstalling and reinstalling the agent. But no success, the error remains the same.

    You need to talk to your Salesforce admin team. Most likely they throttle your requests due to excessive API calls.

    Hi,

    The error message ConnectorRequestFailure usually indicates that the request to the external connector failed, rather than an issue with the Copilot agent itself.

    Since your agent is calling Salesforce through a connection, this typically happens when the connector cannot successfully complete the API request.

    Here are a few things you may want to check:

    1. Salesforce API limits or throttling

    Salesforce enforces API rate limits. If the number of requests exceeds the allowed limit, Salesforce may temporarily block additional requests, which can result in this type of error. Your Salesforce administrator can check the current API usage in the Salesforce admin console.

    2. Verify the connection and authentication

    Even if the connection shows a green checkmark in the connection manager, the authentication token may have expired. It may help to:

    • Recreate the Salesforce connection

    • Re-authenticate the connector

    • Confirm that the connected account still has access to the required objects or APIs.

    3. Check permissions for the connected user

    Make sure the Salesforce user used for the connection has permission to access the resources your Copilot action is trying to call.

    4. Review the agent action configuration

    If the Copilot agent is calling an action that interacts with Salesforce, verify that the parameters and endpoints are configured correctly and that the response schema matches what the agent expects.

    If possible, you could also check the Power Platform run history or action logs to see whether the connector request is returning a more detailed error message from Salesforce.

    In many cases, this issue is related to API limits or connector authentication, so reviewing those settings with the Salesforce admin team usually helps identify the root cause.

    Hope this helps.

    Hi,
    We tried
    - Deleting all existing connections from power automate.
    - Uninstalling the agent and reinstalling it.
    - Reconnect with sources with a new connection.
    - This not just happens with Salesforce but with any connection at random.
    - This is also random in terms of the users that face this issue.
     
    Any other way around for figuring out what went wrong?
