Goose File Bug Request - Extension Configuration Failure

[lexie-sq]

Hello,
Working with Goose my scheduled updated continued to fail each week for the last few weeks. Finally Goose found that the extension configuration continued to fail and asked that I submit a bug report. Please see below for the details Goose provided for this report.

Issue Description:

Scheduled jobs fail to properly initialize required extensions
Extensions specified in recipe settings are not being loaded
Extension Manager itself is not available in scheduled job context

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Create recipe with extensions in settings:
   settings:
   extensions: ["googledrive", "looker"]

2. Run scheduled job

3. Observe job logs showing:
   "I apologize, but I notice that I don't have any extensions enabled"

Expected Behavior:

Extensions specified in recipe settings should be automatically enabled
Extension Manager should be available to enable additional extensions
Job should execute with all required extensions active

Actual Behavior:

Extensions are not initialized
Extension Manager is not available
Job fails immediately due to missing extensions

Impact:

Scheduled jobs cannot access required tools
Automated tasks requiring extensions fail
Manual intervention required for tasks that should be automated

Below is the recipe I'm trying to run. It had run successfully for a few weeks in September but through the month of October when I switched to new Q4 tabs and documents to gather the data run I've been running into these execution errors.

1. For each market (AU, CA, UK, US):

   • Pull Looker report #98791 filtered by country using the most recent file
   • Update main document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1udsB3nTFfDZCvpftNHz50Fs1OJEqUCXbXkoPz_u0jxE/edit
   • Target specific tabs: "AU Q4 Review", "CA Q4 Review", "UK Q4 Review", "US Q4 Review"
   • Insert new data at position 1 of each tab
   • Add separator after new content
   • Maintain historical data below

2. For each market tab (use specific tab IDs):

   • CA Q4 Review (t.8b39u1xxo298)
   • AU Q4 Review (t.5ydcxpxllrrv)
   • UK Q4 Review (t.gpzwco7awrja)
   • US Q4 Review (t.ozq1clss1oih)

4. Update Process:
   a. Use docs_tool with operation "insert_text"
   b. Set start_position to 1
   c. Include specific tab_id for each market
   d. Maintain formatting:

   • Single-spaced
   • Font size 11
   • Standard section headers
   • Table formatting for metrics
     e. Add separator line ("---") after new content

5. Content Structure:

   • Header: "▼ [Date Range]"
   • Current Performance Snapshot
   • Weekly Performance Tracking (4 weeks)
   • Weekly Reporting Factors:
     • Monks Analysis
     • Quantcast Analysis (except UK)
     • Priority Actions & Expected Impact

6. Data Validation:

   • Verify country codes match market tabs
   • Confirm only Display, Native, Streaming Video channels
   • Check data is current (within 24h)
   • Validate all required metrics present
   • Verify correct market data in correct tabs

hello! thanks for the report. my first instinct is that this has to do that the extensionmanager now an actual extension itself. it not being enabled is a new feature or could be; most people don't want the extensionmanager to go ahead and enable extensions beyond what they specify in the recipe.

that said, do you have the actual recipe that you schedule? I think if you would explicitly list the two extensions that you need, it might start working again

Hello, I have 4-5 extensions automatically enabled when I use Goose so these should already be enabled for the recipe to run. Based on the recipe I shared in the ticket how do I need to adjust it to explicitly list the extensions needed? Thanks, Lexie
