What happened
What this says
Current to 11 Oct 26A data connector stopped pulling updates after a couple of days. Bethan diagnosed that Grisedale's security team had rotated API credentials without updating the brain. Lauren committed to re-entering the updated credentials.
Problem: Connector halted data sync, leaving the brain stale. Handling: Bethan checked logs and identified credential rotation as root cause. Lauren's security team had rotated tokens; Lauren committed to updating them in the brain immediately. Watch: This was customer-side but highlights the need for better credential rotation notification processes.

- public_reply · Bethan Lister 4 Apr 2025 10:15I've checked the logs. The connector halted recently. This looks like the credentials were rotated, can you check whether your API key or OAuth token was changed recently?
- internal_note · Bethan Lister 4 Apr 2025 11:14Connector failure caused by credential rotation. Customer to re-enter credentials in system.
- public_reply · Lauren Pilkington 4 Apr 2025 15:12Our security team rotated the tokens last week. I'll update them now and we should be back up.
