Fix a failed store connection

The connection won't establish, or it worked before and now errors.

Work through these in order — the connection tester tells you which kind of error you have.

Troubleshooting

  • Authentication error (credentials rejected)
    • Cause: wrong, mistyped, or rotated credentials.
    • Fix: re-copy the credentials from your platform admin and update them via Reconnect or update your credentials. Watch for trailing spaces.
  • Permission / scope error
    • Cause: the credentials don't include the read access we need.
    • Fix: re-issue credentials with order read (and product read on Growth & Pro). See What permissions we use and why.
  • Reachability / timeout
    • Cause: a transient problem reaching your platform.
    • Fix: wait a few minutes and re-run the connection test. If it keeps failing, your platform may be having an outage.
  • Connected but no data
    • Cause: connection valid but scopes too narrow, or no matching records.
    • Fix: confirm scopes, then verify with a known-good order in Test order lookup from your dashboard.

If none of these resolve it, contact support with the error shown by the connection tester.
