We have identified the cause of the Salesforce connection failures some customers are seeing. A recent incident on the Salesforce side caused authentication requests to fail intermittently (https://status.salesforce.com/incidents/20004512). As a result, the Salesforce authentication token for some Gainsight connections was invalidated. Salesforce has since resolved its incident. However, affected connections will not recover on their own. Re-authorizing the connection is required.
Who is affected: Customers whose Salesforce connection is failing or showing an authentication error, including data syncs and jobs that depend on that connection.
What you need to do: Re-authorize your Salesforce connection in Gainsight. Once re-authorized, blocked or failed jobs should resume. If any jobs remain failed, re-run them after re-authorizing.
If you re-authorize and still see issues, please contact Gainsight Support at support@gainsight.com.
If you are still experiencing any errors, please raise a request with our support team, support@gainsight.com.
