What this says
As at Fri 9 Oct 2026A connector stopped syncing on 25 Jul 2024. BG-Demo traced it to firewall rules changed that morning and sent fix steps. The thread does not show whether the connector recovered.
Problem: Toby Underwood reported that a connector had stopped loading data in the last hour, and internal notes record network timeouts on sync calls.
Handling: Bethan Lister traced the cause to a change in the customer's firewall rules that morning and sent documented fix steps. The header records a first response at 47 minutes.
Watch: The thread's timings conflict with the header, since the first customer message is timed 11:50, before the 17:30 creation time. The ticket closed on 5 Aug 2024 with no confirmation that the connector recovered.
