Diagnose ingestion failures after an upgrade
When an importer starts failing after a deployment change, identify the failing request before attributing it to a release. Coordinator DB does not publish a compatibility promise for another product's version numbers. Diagnose against the documented formats, schema and request limits of the installed build.
Reduce the reproduction
Save the status code, exception code, query identifier, destination schema and a redacted sample that still fails. Separate an ordinary SQL body from an attached upload: ordinary HTTP SQL requests require Content-Length and have a 16 MiB ceiling, while attached INSERT uploads have a different size contract.
Check the registered format spelling, field names, nullability and numeric ranges. Format names use snake_case. Place statement SETTINGS before FORMAT; everything after the format name is input data.
Compare with a small valid batch
Create an isolated test table and send one known-good row. Add the failing fields gradually until the conversion or request error is clear. Do not repeatedly replay a production batch whose outcome is unknown. Reconcile committed rows with stable identifiers first.
Keep the original deployment details in your incident record and test a correction with the same reduced input before resuming normal ingestion.
