Current to 14 Oct 26

The helpdesk connector stopped syncing. Olivia identified an API key rotation by the customer's helpdesk team; Imran updated the connector credentials.

Problem: The helpdesk connector stopped pulling records after a successful pull on Friday. Handling: Olivia reviewed logs and found the connection dropping post-authentication. Imran confirmed the helpdesk team had rotated the API key as part of a security update and provided the new credentials. Watch: Connector stall alerts should be offered. Recommend establishing with Harcastle a change notification process so API key rotations are communicated to the data team.

We're having an issue with the helpdesk connector, it looks like it stopped syncing a few days ago. Our account managers are seeing stale ticket data in the brain. The nightly refresh is completing but not picking up any new records from the helpdesk. I've checked our end: the connector credentials are still valid, the helpdesk system itself is fine, and we haven't made any changes to our setup. Can you check if something has broken on your side?

Hi Imran, I've checked our end and the connector logs show the last successful pull was on Friday. The connection is dropping after the initial authentication. Can you check if your helpdesk system has had any changes to its API keys or IP whitelisting over the past few days? It could also be that the helpdesk updated their API without warning. Let me know what you find.

I've checked with our helpdesk admin and they confirmed they rotated the API key on Friday morning as part of their security update, that wasn't communicated to us. I've got the new key and reset the connector credentials on our end. Should be good now, can you check if the sync has picked it up?

Help & Support

B-Brain is one place to read everything the company knows about its customers: the CRM, calls, emails, support tickets, product usage, invoices, documents, news and HR. Every page is built from those systems and the data is current to Fri 9 Oct 2026.

How to use the site

Summary is the landing page: what happened this week, the calls just held and the calls coming up, the risks and the renewals due.
Organisations lists every customer. Open one to see its key facts, the AI assessment and next step, platform usage, the ARR journey, deals, documents, contacts and activity, and the lineage of every block.
Conversations, Commercial, People, News and Documents cut the same data by topic. System explains how the brain is built and where each figure comes from.
Every card ends with a small made from link: it opens the lineage explorer focused on that card, so you can walk from the figure down to the raw rows it came from.
Use the sun and moon button at the top right to choose dark or light. Choose your device's own mode again to go back to following the device.

How to ask

Press Ask Brain in the header. Type a question, or pick one of the examples.

Search the brain finds the organisations, people, calls, emails, tickets, documents and news that match your words, with links to their pages.
Ask Claude copies your question and opens the B-Brain Claude Project, where Claude answers from the same data using the B-Brain tools and cites the pages it used.

The site itself does not call an AI model; answers in Claude come from the same figures you see here.

Data as of Fri 9 Oct 2026. Text marked AI was written by the brain from the records listed in its made-from link; an AI output that cannot cite its evidence is refused and the previous text kept. Where two systems disagree (for example a contract and the CRM), the key facts show both values and mark the difference.
