Cannot submit compound action

I have a compound action that is around 100 lines long but is only 6 actions. I cannot publish or test it as I continue to get the following error:

Message: Sorry we cannot process your request this time.

I have already broke this set of actions out from another compound action as I wasn’t able to save that one until doing so. I believe this has to do with the size of my compound action as a while back I saw a 5mb size limitation error message when running into this error in another situation. Is my only course of action to break this compound action out into further smaller compound actions?

      The length shouldn’t be an issue, there must be a syntax issue that we are not surfacing correctly. Have you tried converting the script to the UI editor?

      hi ​@andrewwhitley ! i have a compound action that’s about 450 lines long, so i don’t think the length is the issue, however i have seen that error message before when a login cache has run out for me. have you tried copying your code, pasting somewhere safe, then re-authenticating with agent studio?

        ​@andrewwhitley can you share a screenshot of your UI and the whole error message including reference ID?

        As ​@chaney.zimmerman said, Compound Actions are meant for long running, complex processes so the amount of lines should not be an issue.

            Thank you all for the input; you are all correct in that it wasn’t a length issue. I believe the issue was how I was sending multi line text to a system prompt. Once I threw it in a RENDER() statement it was accepted and would proceed. To specify, it didn’t like
            system_prompt: >-
              lines
              of
              text

            So I changed it to
            system_prompt:
              RENDER():
                args:
                  desc: desc
                template: >-
                  lines
                  of
                  text
