- created · Imogen Hartley 24 Sep 2024 17:38Hi, I've noticed that our email connector stopped pulling in new records overnight. The last indexed records are from yesterday morning, and nothing has come through since then. I've checked on our end and the connector credentials are still valid. This is affecting our team's ability to see recent customer communications. Can you look into this? Best, Imogen
- public_reply · Bethan Lister 24 Sep 2024 19:13Thanks Imogen, I've picked this up. Just so I've got this right – the email connector hasn't loaded any new records since yesterday morning. Can you tell me which connector is affected, and have you noticed any error messages in the admin console? When did you last successfully see records come through?
- public_reply · Bethan Lister 25 Sep 2024 09:18I've checked the logs on our end and the connector is timing out when it tries to authenticate with your email system. This usually means either the credentials have been reset or there's a connection issue on your network. Can you check whether anyone's changed the password or firewall rules recently?
- public_reply · Imogen Hartley 25 Sep 2024 12:21Good catch. I just spoke to our email admin and they did reset the credentials this week as part of a security rotation. I've got the new credentials and they're ready to be updated. What do I need to do to reconnect the connector?
- public_reply · Imogen Hartley 25 Sep 2024 14:28Apologies for the quick follow-up – I've updated the credentials on our end and the connector's running now. I can see new records coming through. Should I expect a full sync or will it just pull in records since we fixed the connection?
- internal_note · Bethan Lister 25 Sep 2024 16:47Credentials issue resolved – customer updated auth details and connector is back online. Will do incremental load from next refresh. Ticket solved.
