Troubleshooting
Quick answer
Auto-run is off, or the column was added without running.
A required input or setting has no value (the panel footer warns).
The cell says Error: open it and read the message.
Nothing happens, or the cells stay empty
What you see: The column exists, but no row has run.
Why it happens: Auto-run is Off (the app says "New rows and values will not run on their own"), or you chose Add column without running.
What to do: Click a row's play button, or use the column header's Run column dialog. See Why didn't my column run?.
The footer says "Select a column for … before running"
What you see: A warning such as "Select a column for … before running." in the panel footer.
Why it happens: A required input or setting (marked with *) has no value. An input can be empty even when a suggestion names a column.
What to do: Click the input, press / and pick a column from the list. Do not close the list with Esc: a / or @ is then left in the field as plain text.
My cells say Skipped
What you see: Skipped in the cells.
Why it happens: Skipped means "Did not run because of filters or missing dependencies."
What to do: Double-click the cell and read the message. Check that every input is mapped to a column, and look under Run Settings for Add run condition ("Only run if this formula resolves to true.").
My cells say Unsatisfied
What you see: Unsatisfied in the cells.
Why it happens: Unsatisfied means "Enrichment ran correctly, but output didn't match expected format."
What to do: Double-click the cell and read the message. Check the input values in that row, and test one row before you re-run many. See What a cell's message means.
A cell says Error
What you see: The cell says Error, and the footer shows a count such as "1 cell failed".
Why it happens: Error means "Crashed, something went wrong." The message is in the cell it happened in.
What to do: Double-click the cell and read the message. Read the line under each option in the Run column dialog before you re-run.
The result did not change after I edited an input
What you see: A finished cell keeps its old result after you change an input.
Why it happens: With Auto-run on, Keep existing results is ticked: "Only errored, empty and new cells run. A completed answer is left alone even when one of its inputs changes."
What to do: Double-click the cell and click Re-run this cell, or click the play button on the column header and choose Overwrite all N rows in the Run column dialog. Read the line under each option first.
What does it cost?
Generate AI Image runs on Loopster's account and is paid from your wallet, per row. Look for a price next to the action in the Add enrichment panel (not every option shows one) and hover it: the tooltip says it runs on Loopster's account and is paid from your wallet. Before you run, the Run column dialog shows the cost: Maximum cost on a paid column. See Your wallet and keeping spend under control.
The price per row is marked as approximate.
