What ongoing maintenance does a connected add-on require?

The cited guidance identifies two ongoing maintenance activities for a connected add-on: checking connections for warnings or errors and monitoring the functionality and behavior of deployed AI components in production. A connection showing a warning or error icon is handled by selecting it and choosing Fix connection or Re-authenticate; deployed components are monitored while operating in production.

How to check it

Area What is checked Supported action
Connection health Warning or error icons on connections The flagged connection is selected, then Fix connection or Re-authenticate is chosen.
Production behavior The functionality and behavior of the AI system and components identified in the map function Those components are monitored while deployed in production.

The connection-maintenance action is conditional on a visible warning or error. The production-monitoring expectation applies while the components are in production. The cited statements do not establish a routine review frequency for either activity.

What a team must still confirm

The cited statements do not specify:

  • who owns maintenance, coverage hours, or escalation responsibilities;
  • how often checks should occur or what thresholds should trigger action;
  • which components fall within the referenced map function;
  • what records, test evidence, or incident information should be retained;
  • which change-control, security, privacy, backup, or recovery procedures apply;
  • whether support fees, contract terms, service levels, or other commitments apply.

The absence of these details from the cited statements does not mean they are unnecessary. It does mean that a complete maintenance policy cannot be inferred, and neither maintenance action should be presented as guaranteeing availability or performance.
