PII detection failed

Error message

PII detection failed

What it means

detectPII() threw while running its PII regex patterns over the content (invalid pattern, engine error) — not 'PII was found', which is a normal return of detections. The catch logs and re-raises wrapped, so detection failures are distinguishable from positive findings.

Solutions

1. Check the PII detection model/service health and input encoding; retry after validating the input payload.
