Error Handling
viaSocket is built to keep your workflows stable and efficient — even when something goes wrong. Its smart error-handling system automatically detects, isolates, and manages issues to prevent workflow interruptions.
🔍 Detecting Errors
While your workflow runs, viaSocket actively monitors each step for potential issues such as:
Invalid or missing input data
Network or connectivity problems
API request failures or timeouts
Example:
If a step fails while retrieving data from an external API, viaSocket detects the issue instantly and starts its error-handling process.
⏭️ Skipping Dependent Steps
When an error is found, viaSocket automatically skips the failed step and any steps that depend on its output.
This containment prevents errors from spreading across the workflow.
Result: Only the affected parts are skipped — the rest continues running normally.
🔄 Continuing Independent Steps
Steps that don’t rely on the failed one still execute as planned, allowing your workflow to finish as many actions as possible.
💡Example:
If Step 2 fails but Step 4 is independent, Step 4 will still execute successfully.
