# Request Investigations

> Systematic workflow for debugging failed or slow inference requests

## Investigation Strategy

Use a repeatable sequence to avoid missing context.

```mermaid theme={null}
flowchart LR
    A[Choose Incident Window] --> B[Apply Filters]
    B --> C[Sort by Latency/Status]
    C --> D[Open Request Detail]
    D --> E[Compare Similar Requests]
    E --> F[Capture Findings]
```

## Recommended Filter Order

1. Time range
2. Project or deployment
3. Endpoint type
4. Success/failure status
5. Latency or token boundaries

## What to Capture per Request

* Inference ID and timestamp
* Response time and TTFT
* Status code and error fields
* Token usage
* Gateway metadata (IP, user agent, path)

## Export and Handoff

* Export filtered tables for team review.
* Copy request IDs into incident tickets.
* Include exact filters/time window so others can reproduce.
