# Your third-party systems go offline

## Scenario

There may be occasions where your systems go offline - perhaps due to a general outage, or any number of reasons.&#x20;

When this happens, syncing to these or downstream systems will be disrupted, resulting in errors reported in your Patchworks [run logs](/product-documentation/process-flows/error-reporting-and-exception-handling/run-logs-and-queue.md). Don’t be alarmed by these errors - they are to be expected, and can be resolved.&#x20;

## Solution

Once your systems are back online, edit any affected process flows and (temporarily) adjust any filter settings to cover the downtime period - then [run the process flow manually](/product-documentation/process-flows/managing-process-flows/initialising-a-process-flow-manually.md).

Avoid deploying this change as it will affect any future runs.

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://doc.wearepatchworks.com/product-documentation/process-flows/troubleshooting-process-flows/your-third-party-systems-go-offline.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
