Troubleshooting
Fixes for the things that trip people up, from sign-in codes to Vic not showing up.
Signing in
Section titled “Signing in”My sign-in code never arrived
Section titled “My sign-in code never arrived”Check your spam folder, and make sure you used the email address your firm added. Your firm’s admin can confirm which address that is.
My code doesn’t work
Section titled “My code doesn’t work”Codes last a few minutes. If yours expired, ask for a new one and use the newest code.
Connecting your AI
Section titled “Connecting your AI”Vic doesn’t show up in my AI
Section titled “Vic doesn’t show up in my AI”- Check the name. It has to be exactly
CRE Agents (Vic). The “(Vic)” is what lets your AI find it when you say “Use Vic”. - Start a new chat after you connect.
- Ask for it by name. Start with “Use Vic to”, for example “Use Vic to show me what you can do.”
- Check the portal. On Connected AIs in the left menu, your AI should be listed. If it isn’t, run the connect steps again.
Copilot Studio won’t add the tool
Section titled “Copilot Studio won’t add the tool”The Copilot page covers the four common snags: a greyed-out Add button, “Can’t create MCP server”, an agent that never calls CRE Agents, and a help page instead of the setup wizard. See Connect Microsoft Copilot.
I want to remove an AI
Section titled “I want to remove an AI”In the portal, open Connected AIs in the left menu and click Disconnect on the one you want to remove.
Setup and catalogs
Section titled “Setup and catalogs”Finish setup is greyed out
Section titled “Finish setup is greyed out”It unlocks once you’ve picked a catalog and your AI is connected. See Finish setup.
A catalog I want isn’t available
Section titled “A catalog I want isn’t available”If your firm uses departments, your department’s menu decides which catalogs you can pick. Click Ask your admin under Not on your menu on the portal’s Task + Data page, and your admin sees the request.
For firm admins
Section titled “For firm admins”I can’t invite anyone
Section titled “I can’t invite anyone”Every seat is in use. Click Request a seat on the Team page to message CRE Agents, and we’ll add one.
Tasks that pull data have paused
Section titled “Tasks that pull data have paused”The firm’s credit pool ran out for the month. Tasks that need no data keep working, and everything resets on the date shown on Your plan. To add credits sooner, message CRE Agents from the notice on the Firm overview.
Still stuck?
Section titled “Still stuck?”Click Message the team at the top of any portal page. Pick what it’s about, describe what happened, and a person reads it and replies by email.
If you pick Report a bug or Request a feature, the dialog shows a number after you send, like “Logged as bug #142.” Quote it if you follow up.
