Includes connectivity tests, request tracing, diagnostic scripts, and support ticket templates. Gamma uses a REST API at `https://public-api.gamma.app/v1.0/` with `X-API-KEY` header authentication. ## Prerequisites - Active Gamma integration - Node.js 18+ or Python 3.10+ - `curl` and `jq` available ## Instructions ### Step 1: Quick Connectivity Test (curl) ```bash #!/bin/bash set -euo pipefail echo "=== Gamma API Diagnostic ===" # 1. Check API key if [ -z "${GAMMA_API_KEY:-}" ]; then echo "FAIL: GAMMA_API_KEY not set"; exit 1 fi echo "OK: API key set (${#GAMMA_API_KEY} chars, prefix: ${GAMMA_API_KEY:0:4}...)" # 2. Test authentication via /themes endpoint STATUS=$(curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}" \ -H "X-API-KEY: $GAMMA_API_KEY" \ "https://public-api.gamma.app/v1.0/themes") if [ "$STATUS" = "200" ]; then echo "OK: Authentication successful" elif [ "$STATUS" = "401" ]; then echo "FAIL: Invalid API key (401)" elif [ "$STATUS" = "403" ]; then echo "FAIL: Account not on Pro+ plan (403)" else echo "WARN: Unexpected status $STATUS" fi # 3. Check latency echo "--- Latency (3 samples) ---" for i in 1 2 3; do LATENCY=$(curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{time_total}" \ -H "X-API-KEY: $GAMMA_API_KEY" \ "https://public-api.gamma.app/v1.0/themes") echo " Request $i: ${LATENCY}s" done # 4. List themes (verify API access) echo "--- Workspace Themes ---" curl -s -H "X-API-KEY: $GAMMA_API_KEY" \ "https://public-api.gamma.app/v1.0/themes" | jq '.[].name' 2>/dev/null || echo "Could not parse themes" ``` ### Step 2: TypeScript Diagnostic Script ```typescript // scripts/gamma-diagnose.ts const BASE = "https://public-api.gamma.app/v1.0"; const headers = { "X-API-KEY": process.env.GAMMA_API_KEY!, "Content-Type": "application/json", }; interface TestResult { test: string; status: "PASS" | "FAIL"; detail: string; latencyMs?: number; } async function diagnose(): Promise { const results: TestResult[] = []; // Test 1: API key set if (!process.env.GAMMA_API_KEY) { results.push({ test: "API Key", status: "FAIL", detail: "GAMMA_API_KEY not set" }); return results; } results.push({ test: "API Key", status: "PASS", detail: `Set (${process.env.GAMMA_API_KEY.length} chars)`, }); // Test 2: Authentication try { const start = Date.now(); const res = await fetch(`${BASE}/themes`, { headers }); const latency = Date.now() - start; if (res.ok) { const themes = await res.json(); results.push({ test: "Authentication", status: "PASS", detail: `OK, ${themes.length} themes available`, latencyMs: latency, }); } else { results.push({ test: "Authentication", status: "FAIL", detail: `HTTP ${res.status}: ${await res.text()}`, }); } } catch (err: any) { results.push({ test: "Authentication", status: "FAIL", detail: err.message }); } // Test 3: Folders endpoint try { const start = Date.now(); const res = await fetch(`${BASE}/folders`, { headers }); results.push({ test: "Folders API", status: res.ok ?

JSON.stringify(body).slice(0, 200) : ""); const res = await fetch(url, { method, headers, body: body ? JSON.stringify(body) : undefined, }); const duration = Date.now() - start; const responseText = await res.text(); const status = res.ok ? "OK" : "ERROR"; console.log(`[GAMMA] ${status} ${res.status} in ${duration}ms`); if (!res.ok) { console.log(`[GAMMA] Response: ${responseText.slice(0, 500)}`); } if (!res.ok) throw new Error(`Gamma ${res.status}: ${responseText}`); return JSON.parse(responseText); } return { generate: (body: any) => debugRequest("POST", "/generations", body), poll: (id: string) => debugRequest("GET", `/generations/${id}`), listThemes: () => debugRequest("GET", "/themes"), listFolders: () => debugRequest("GET", "/folders"), }; } ``` ### Step 4: Support Ticket Template ```markdown ## Environment - Node.js: [version] - OS: [os] - API version: v1.0 ## Issue Description [What you expected vs what happened] ## API Request - Endpoint: POST /v1.0/generations - Status: [HTTP status] - Response: [error body, sanitized] ## Steps to Reproduce 1. [Step 1] 2. [Step 2] ## Diagnostic Output [Paste output from gamma-diagnose.ts] ## Additional Context - Account plan: [Pro/Ultra/Teams/Business] - Credit balance: [approximate] ``` ## Common Issues Quick Reference | Symptom | Likely Cause | Fix | |---------|-------------|-----| | 401 on all requests | Bad API key | Verify key at gamma.app/settings | | 403 Forbidden | Not on Pro+ plan | Upgrade at gamma.app/pricing | | 429 Too Many Requests | Rate limit | Add backoff; contact Gamma support for higher limits | | Generation `status: "failed"` | Content too complex | Simplify content, reduce card count | | Empty `exportUrl` | No `exportAs` in request | Add `exportAs: "pdf"` to generation | | Timeout on poll | Very complex generation | Increase poll timeout beyond 3 min | ## Error Handling | Error | Cause | Solution | |-------|-------|----------| | `GAMMA_API_KEY required` | Missing env var | Set `GAMMA_API_KEY` in `.env` | | Diagnostic generation fails | No credits | Check credit balance at gamma.app | | Network timeout | Connectivity issue | Check DNS resolution for `public-api.gamma.app` | ## Resources - [Gamma Developer Docs](https://developers.gamma.app/) - [Gamma Support](https://gamma.app/support) - [API Changelog](https://developers.gamma.app/changelog) ## Next Steps Proceed to `gamma-rate-limits` for rate limit management.
