PE-ARG-5000

Error message

Query failed to execute because query is not configured.

What it means

Identical guard to ChatCommand:140 but in VisionCommand.makeRequestBody — fires when the Vision query's formData is null or empty. Vision uses VISION_MODEL_SELECTOR and accepts image content, but the empty-formData check is the same first gate. Code PE-ARG-5000 (PLUGIN_EXECUTE_ARGUMENT_ERROR).

Solutions

1. Configure the Vision query: pick a vision-capable model and add a message before running.
2. When invoking programmatically, supply a non-empty formData map with model and message entries.
3. Verify the action was saved with its configuration intact.

Example fix

// before
ActionConfiguration cfg = new ActionConfiguration();
// formData unset
// after
Map<String,Object> formData = new HashMap<>();
formData.put("model", "claude-3-5-sonnet");
formData.put("messages", Map.of("messagesList", List.of(Map.of("role","user","type","text","content","describe this"))));
cfg.setFormData(formData);

Map<String, Object> formData = actionConfiguration.getFormData();
if (CollectionUtils.isEmpty(formData)) {
    return errorResult("Configure the Vision query before running.");
}

boolean isFormDataConfigured(Map<String, Object> formData) {
    return formData != null && !formData.isEmpty();
}

try {
    visionCommand.makeRequestBody(actionConfiguration);
} catch (AppsmithPluginException e) {
    if (e.getAppsmithError() == AppsmithPluginError.PLUGIN_EXECUTE_ARGUMENT_ERROR) {
        // prompt user to configure the vision query
    }
}

When it happens

Trigger: Running the Anthropic Vision command with an ActionConfiguration whose formData is null or an empty map.

Common situations: New vision query run before any field was filled; formData lost during import/migration or programmatic invocation.
