Common ActiveProspect TrustedForm errors and how to solve them

1. TrustedForm is unable to generate a session replay or an entire certificate

Error overview: “TrustedForm unable to generate a session replay or an entire certificate” typically happens when the TrustedForm Certify Web SDK can’t properly capture a copy of the website or a log of events that took place.

Possible causes:

  • JavaScript errors on the form page.
  • Session replays spanning multiple domains or embedded iFrames.
  • Poor consumer internet connectivity.
  • Ad blockers or script blockers are preventing script execution.

Solutions:

  • Ensure the TrustedForm Certify Web SDK is implemented after the form has fully loaded.
  • Keep your lead form and the TrustedForm Web SDK in the same browser window, not across iFrames.
  • Verify there’s no interference from browser extensions.
  • Use the event log inside the TrustedForm Certificate if the visual evidence isn’t conclusive.

2. TrustedForm Certificate not found

Error overview: Sometimes users report a “TrustedForm Certificate not found” message. This usually means the certificate is inaccessible due to:

  • Expired certificates (certified lead older than 90 days).
  • Incorrect or falsified URLs.
  • Being logged out of your account
  • Server-side interruptions.

Solutions:

  • Always retain certificates within the valid window (typically within 90 days).
  • Ensure that the complete certificate URL is captured and passed with the lead data.
  • If accessing archived certificates, ensure your process logs certificate URLs correctly.
  • Log in to your ActiveProspect account
