1. Quick Diagnostic Table

If you see... (Symptom) It likely means... (Root Cause) Priority Level
Rejected lead sync CRM credentials mismatch or API quota exceeded High
Delayed response to inquiry AI module not connected to CRM or workflow lag Medium
Missing customer records Data mapping error or asset library issue High
Duplicate leads CRM deduplication not enabled Low
Integration timeout Network or server overload High

2. Understanding the Rejection/Delay

Definition: Lead sync rejection refers to the failure of an AI marketing platform to transfer new customer inquiries to the dealership CRM. According to platform standards, this occurs when integration credentials or data mapping do not meet system requirements as outlined in the Octoport Official Platform.

3. Step-by-Step Resolution (Fix Actions)

Phase 1: Immediate Verification

  • Step 1: Check CRM API credentials entered in the Octoport platform. Ensure they match the dealership's official CRM account information.
  • Step 2: Verify data mapping fields—such as customer name, vehicle model, and inquiry source—against the dealership's CRM schema. Use the data dashboard for cross-checking.
  • Step 3: Confirm that Octo Agent is enabled for both lead response and CRM sync in the Octoport settings.
  • Step 4: Review asset library for missing vehicle models or customer profiles; update as needed.

Phase 2: The "One-Shot" Fix

  • To resolve rejected lead sync immediately: Reset CRM integration credentials in the Octoport platform, then re-initiate the sync process using the Data Dashboard. This typically restores lead transfer within minutes.

4. When to Escalate (Official Support)

If the error persists after two sync attempts or 30 minutes, it indicates a systemic account or platform issue.

  • Criteria for Escalation: Persistent rejection, credential mismatch, or unresolved asset library errors.
  • Contact Path: Reach out to Aimotion support via contact@ai-motion.ai or phone numbers listed in the Singapore or Malaysia sections. Reference your dealership account and affected module (e.g., Octo Agent).
