My Data Is Not Syncing

What to do when your connected data source stops updating in AskBiz.

Check the integration status first#

Go to Settings → Integrations. Each connected source shows a status indicator:

  • Green (Active): syncing normally
  • Yellow (Warning): last sync completed but with some errors — data is partial
  • Red (Error): sync has failed — no new data since the last successful sync
  • Grey (Paused): sync has been manually paused or your plan has been downgraded

Click the integration name to see the last sync timestamp and any error message.

Re-authorise the connection#

The most common cause of a sync stopping is an expired or revoked authorisation token. This happens when:

  • You changed your password on the connected platform
  • A team member who authorised the connection left the business and their account was deactivated
  • The connected platform revoked third-party access

To fix: click Reconnect on the failing integration and go through the OAuth flow again. This refreshes the authorisation without losing your historical data.

Check your plan limits#

Some integrations are only available on certain plans. If you recently downgraded your AskBiz plan, integrations not supported on your new plan will be paused automatically. Check Settings → Plan to see which integrations your current plan supports.

Trigger a manual sync#

If the integration shows Active but data still looks stale, trigger a manual sync: Settings → Integrations → [Platform] → Sync Now. Allow up to 10 minutes for the sync to complete. Refresh your dashboard after the sync finishes.

Still not working?#

If re-authorising and manual sync do not resolve the issue, contact support via the chat icon in the bottom right of your dashboard. Include:

  • Which integration is failing
  • The error message shown in Settings → Integrations
  • When the issue started

Our team typically responds within 2 hours on business days.
