quickassist

Hello -- the last few time I tried to use quickassist I kept getting an error ---

I was the "giver" of the assist

then the receiver typed in the code, I got the request view or full access

I defaulted to full access

the receiver type OK then on my side I got an error and the session never started

is there a way to debug this? thanks
