Debugging toolkit for Gamma API integration issues. 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.

}## 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]| 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 | 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 |
Proceed to gamma-rate-limits for rate limit management.
