Hi @NuthanaA  

The issue where the agent is not responding or showing a "Connection failed" error is typically tied to session handling or input clarity. Please try the following steps:

Improve the Prompt Strategy: The "Connection failed: WebSocket connection error" often occurs when the prompt is too vague for the agent to initialize a plan. Instead of a generic request like "I want an application," provide specific details

Check for Updates: Ensure your instance and Now Assist plugins are up to date. Sometimes a version mismatch causes the agent to hang or fail to establish a stable connection.

Same issue. You can be as detailed as you want, specify every table name, field value and name, ui page, no matter what I do I get the same error. 

It is a Websocket connection error. If it was a "Your prompt is garbage" error it would still return a response saying as much, but it doesn't. 

 

This is the perfect time for ServiceNow to have this functionality working given they just obliterated everyone's PDI's, but it just doesn't work.
