This could be due to incorrect syntax, invalid data format, or a missing field in the watch definition. To resolve this issue, you can: 1) Check the syntax of your watch definition and correct any errors. 2) Ensure that the data format matches the expected format. 3) Make sure all required fields are included in the watch definition. 4) If the error persists, consider recreating the watch from scratch.
