Troubleshooting
Analysis: invalid data
Republish gold with a clear datetime column and numeric values.
No gold in the list?
Confirm Forecast was enabled at publish and the artifact is ready (not draft or failed).
Wrong interval?
Monthly data trained as hourly produces poor forecasts. Match interval to how your series was collected.
