What this says
As at Fri 9 Oct 2026Aaron Crowther reported a connection warning on the HR connector since last Tuesday. BG-Demo found connection refused on the last two attempts, and IT had changed the service account password.
Problem: Aaron Crowther said the HR system connector had shown a warning since last Tuesday and he was unsure whether it was a password issue.
Handling: Bethan Lister saw connection refused on the last two attempts and asked whether the service account password had been rotated. Aaron said IT changed it last week and would share the new one through the secure route; the ticket closed on 15 Mar 2025 with no reconnection recorded.
Watch: HR data may be stale while the connector is refused. The record does not show when the new password was shared or whether the connector recovered.

Just so I've got this right, has the service account password been rotated recently? Please try reconnecting and tell me what you see on the status page. Thanks, Bethan
