import { writeFileSync } from 'fs';
import axios from 'axios';

interface DebugBundle {
  timestamp: string;
  environment: Record<string, any>;
  connectivity: Record<string, any>;
  apiHealth: Record<string, any>;
  recentRequests: Array<any>;
  errors: Array<any>;
}

    connectivity: {},
    apiHealth: {},

    apiKeyLength: process.env.APOLLO_API_KEY?.length || 0,
    apiKeyPrefix: process.env.APOLLO_API_KEY?.substring(0, 8) + '...',

  // 2. Connectivity Check

Quick Debug Commands

# Check API key format
echo "API Key Length: $(echo -n $APOLLO_API_KEY | wc -c)"
echo "API Key Prefix: ${APOLLO_API_KEY:0:8}..."

# Test connectivity
curl -w "\nTime: %{time_total}s\nStatus: %{http_code}\n" \
  -s -o /dev/null \
  "https://api.apollo.io"

# Test authentication
curl -s "https://api.apollo.io/v1/auth/health?api_key=$APOLLO_API_KEY" | jq

# Test people search
curl -s -X POST "https://api.apollo.io/v1/people/search" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api_key": "'$APOLLO_API_KEY'", "per_page": 1}' | jq

# Check rate limit headers
curl -I -s -X POST "https://api.apollo.io/v1/people/search" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"api_key": "'$APOLLO_API_KEY'", "per_page": 1}' \
  | grep -i "ratelimit\|x-"

Debug Checklist

1. Environment Verification

• APOLLO_API_KEY environment variable is set
• API key is correct length (typically 20+ characters)
• No extra whitespace in API key
• Using correct environment (production vs sandbox)

2. Network Verification

• Can reach api.apollo.io via HTTPS
• No proxy/firewall blocking requests
• DNS resolving correctly
• SSL/TLS working properly

3. Request Verification

• Content-Type header is

  application/json

• Request body is valid JSON
• Required fields are present
• Array fields are arrays (not strings)

4. Rate Limit Verification

• Not exceeding 100 requests/minute
• Implementing proper backoff
• Respecting Retry-After headers
