Fix BlockUnknownError
in AutoGPT
✅ Solution
BlockUnknownError in AutoGPT usually indicates an issue with a specific block's execution, often due to incorrect input or a problem with the external service it's interacting with. To fix it, carefully examine the error message to identify the failing block and the root cause (e.g., invalid URL, missing file, API error). Then, correct the input parameters or address the external service issue, such as ensuring the file exists, the API key is valid, or the URL is accessible.
