Reconnect your channels after maintenance
What to do when we ask you to reconnect your channels, and what stays exactly as it was.
2 min read
From time to time we run periodic maintenance on the service. Some maintenance needs you to reconnect your channels once. When that happens you get a notification, an email and a yellow banner at the top of your dashboard.
- 1Press Reconnect now on the banner, or open the link in the email.
- 2You see a checklist of the channels to reconnect, each with its name and handle.
- 3Press Reconnect on a channel and sign in to that same account, the way you connected it the first time.
- 4Come back to the checklist: the channel turns green. Repeat for the rest.
- Reconnect the same account (the same page, number or profile) so its history continues.
- New messages to a channel arrive again as soon as it is reconnected, so do it soon.
- A channel you no longer use? Choose "I don't use this any more" and it stops waiting.
- Only the workspace owner or an admin can reconnect channels.
