Apollo Debug Bundle

Overview

Collect comprehensive debug information for Apollo.io API issues to expedite support resolution.

Debug Collection Script

// scripts/apollo-debug-bundle.ts
import { writeFileSync } from 'fs';
import axios from 'axios';

interface DebugBundle {
  timestamp: string;
  environment: Record<string, any>;
  connectivity: Record<string, any>;
  apiHealth: Record<string, any>;
  recentRequests: Array<any>;
  errors: Array<any>;
}

async function collectDebugBundle(): Promise<DebugBundle> {
  const bundle: DebugBundle = {
    timestamp: new Date().toISOString(),
    environment: {},
    connectivity: {},
    apiHealth: {},
    recentRequests: [],
    errors: [],
  };

  // 1. Environment Info
  bundle.environment = {
    nodeVersion: process.version,
    platform: process.platform,
    arch: process.arch,
    apiKeyPresent: !!process.env.APOLLO_API_KEY,
    apiKeyLength: process.env.APOLLO_API_KEY?.length || 0,
    apiKeyPrefix: process.env.APOLLO_API_KEY?.substring(0, 8) + '...',
  };

  // 2. Connectivity Check
  try {
    const start = Date.now();
    await axios.get('https://api.apollo.io', { timeout: 5000 });
    bundle.connectivity = {
      reachable: true,
      latencyMs: Date.now() - start,
    };
  } catch (error: any) {
    bundle.connectivity = {
      reachable: false,
      error: error.message,
      code: error.code,
    };
  }

  // 3. API Health Check
  try {
    const response = await axios.get('https://api.apollo.io/v1/auth/health', {
      params: { api_key: process.env.APOLLO_API_KEY },

  // 4. Test Basic Endpoints
  const endpoints = [

      const response = await axios({
        method: endpoint.method,
        url: `https://api.apollo.io/v1${endpoint.url}`,
        params: { api_key: process.env.APOLLO_API_KEY, ...endpoint.params },
        data: endpoint.data,
        timeout: 15000,

        endpoint: endpoint.name,
        status: 'failed',
        error: error.message,
        responseCode: error.response?.status,
        responseBody: sanitizeResponse(error.response?.data),
      });
    }
  }

  return bundle;
}

function sanitizeResponse(data: any): any {
  if (!data) return null;
  // Remove sensitive data
  const sanitized = JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(data));
  if (sanitized.people) {
    sanitized.people = `[${sanitized.people.length} contacts]`;
  }
  return sanitized;
}

// Main execution
async function main() {
  console.log('Collecting Apollo debug bundle...\n');

  const bundle = await collectDebugBundle();

  // Display summary
  console.log('=== Apollo Debug Bundle ===\n');
  console.log(`Timestamp: ${bundle.timestamp}`);

  // Save to file
  const filename = `apollo-debug-${Date.now()}.json`;
  writeFileSync(filename, JSON.stringify(bundle, null, 2));
  console.log(`\nBundle saved to: ${filename}`);

  // Display errors if any
  if (bundle.errors.length > 0) {

}

main().catch(console.error);

Quick Debug Commands

# Check API key format
echo "API Key Length: $(echo -n $APOLLO_API_KEY | wc -c)"
echo "API Key Prefix: ${APOLLO_API_KEY:0:8}..."

# Test connectivity
curl -w "\nTime: %{time_total}s\nStatus: %{http_code}\n" \
  -s -o /dev/null \
  "https://api.apollo.io"

# Test authentication
curl -s "https://api.apollo.io/v1/auth/health?api_key=$APOLLO_API_KEY" | jq

# Test people search
curl -s -X POST "https://api.apollo.io/v1/people/search" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api_key": "'$APOLLO_API_KEY'", "per_page": 1}' | jq

# Check rate limit headers
curl -I -s -X POST "https://api.apollo.io/v1/people/search" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api_key": "'$APOLLO_API_KEY'", "per_page": 1}' \
  | grep -i "ratelimit\|x-"

Debug Checklist

1. Environment Verification

• APOLLO_API_KEY environment variable is set
• API key is correct length (typically 20+ characters)
• No extra whitespace in API key
• Using correct environment (production vs sandbox)

2. Network Verification

• Can reach api.apollo.io via HTTPS
• No proxy/firewall blocking requests
• DNS resolving correctly
• SSL/TLS working properly

3. Request Verification

• Content-Type header is application/json
• Request body is valid JSON
• Required fields are present
• Array fields are arrays (not strings)

4. Rate Limit Verification

• Not exceeding 100 requests/minute
• Implementing proper backoff
• Respecting Retry-After headers
