SnapVee Failed Tasks: Credit Returns and Troubleshooting

If a SnapVee task fails, first separate task-creation failures from failures that happen after processing begins. The next step and the likely cause are different.

When are credits returned?

If a task is not created successfully, deducted download points or AI credits are returned when possible.

This wording matters: a return is handled when possible. Do not treat every failure as an unconditional refund promise. If your balance does not recover after a failed task, keep the task information and contact support.

Failures after a task enters the queue

Common causes include:

• Expired links.
• Public-site changes.
• Inaccessible source media.
• Timeouts.
• A source page that is no longer public.

Troubleshooting checklist

1. Open the original source URL in a fresh browser session.
2. Confirm that the page still works without private-account access.
3. Check whether the source video or audio is still available.
4. Confirm the selected workflow supports that source.
5. Retry once after confirming public access.
6. If the same task still fails, contact support with the source URL and task details.

Check the workflow before retrying

Goal	Recommended workflow
Download an authorized public video	Download page
Download a public YouTube video	YouTube Downloader
Create notes from a supported public source	Video Summary
Create subtitles from a supported public source	Subtitle Transcription

Avoid repeated duplicate tasks

Long-form summary and subtitle tasks run asynchronously. A task that is still processing is not necessarily stuck. Check task stages and refresh recent tasks before submitting the same source again.

Quick answer

When task creation fails, SnapVee returns deducted allowances when possible. If a queued task fails, confirm that the link is still public, retry once, and contact support when the failure persists.
