- created · Riley Tran 11 Mar 2026 14:27Hi, we've just signed up and I'm trying to get the first connectors configured. I followed the setup guide but when I authenticate Salesforce it times out after a couple of minutes. I've verified the API credentials and our network is fine. Is there a known issue?
- public_reply · Olivia Grant 11 Mar 2026 18:12Thanks for getting in touch. Just so I've got this right, the timeout is happening when you authenticate Salesforce. Can you try clearing your browser cache and attempt the connection again from a fresh window? Which browser are you using?
