Connector statuses explained
Every connector has two statuses. Connector Status says where it is in its life; Engagement Status says whether its last sign-in or connection test worked. Both are on the connector's Overview tab, under Connector Details. The header beside the tabs shows the engagement value after Status:.
Connector Status
| Connector Status | What it means | What you can do |
|---|---|---|
| Draft | Created, but its settings have never been saved. Leaving the setup wizard early with Save as draft or Cancel leaves one. The list marks it with a Draft chip. | Open it and finish Configuration, or remove it. |
| Initialised | Set up, but not switched on. Nothing runs and it can't be bound yet. | With Engagement Status at Connected, select Enable. |
| Verification Pending | A provider sign-in is under way. Authorization in progress counts down from three minutes above the tabs. | Finish signing in in the pop-up window. |
| Verification Failed | The sign-in was refused, cancelled or ran out of time. | Select Authenticate again on Configuration. See Verifying a connector. |
| Active | Switched on. Its schedule runs and it can be bound. Its settings are locked. | Nothing. To change a setting, disable it first. |
| Disabled | Switched off, by you or by Elie after its sign-in stopped working. Settings and bindings are kept. | Fix the sign-in if it failed, then select Enable. |
Engagement Status
| Engagement Status | What it means | What you can do |
|---|---|---|
| Connected | The last test or sign-in worked. | Nothing. |
| Not Connected | Never tested, or a provider sign-in failed or expired. Normal for a new connector. | Test it or sign in. See Verifying a connector. |
| Authentication Failed | A test or a real run reached the system and was refused. | Correct the credentials and test again. |
In the lists
Import Connectors, Export Connectors and the Overview Dashboard shorten Connector Status to Active or Inactive. Hover the pill for the exact status. The Engagement column is green when Connected and grey otherwise. An icon beside it means the connector has a warning, such as a missing permission or files it skipped; hover it for the detail.
When Elie switches a connector off
If a password is changed, a key is revoked or a provider sign-in expires, the next test, run or daily check fails and Elie disables the connector. It shows Disabled with Authentication Failed or Not Connected, its Configuration tab opens with Action required, and it appears under Required Attention on Home. Reconnect, or Update credentials followed by Re-test connection, brings Engagement Status back to Connected. The connector stays Disabled until you select Enable.
Filtering by status
Above each list, All Status filters by Connector Status and All Engagement by Engagement Status. Tick values in either; the list updates at once. The control then names your choice, or reads 2 selected, and Clear removes it. A filtered list that is empty reads No Connectors found.
