A connection shows as disconnected — what do I do?

Reconnect it from the Connections page. This usually happens when a login has expired on the other side (for example, a tool revoked access, or a password changed). Reconnecting takes the same one click as the original setup.

A knowledge sync isn’t picking up my latest changes

Check the sync’s last-run status first — if it failed, the reason is usually shown right there (a moved spreadsheet, an unreachable API). If it succeeded but the content still looks stale, confirm the sync’s schedule matches how often your source actually changes; a sync that runs nightly won’t reflect a change you made five minutes ago.

A capability is timing out during calls

Live lookups run on a tight time budget so callers aren’t left waiting. If a capability is timing out, the system it depends on is likely responding too slowly — check that connection’s health, and consider whether the capability is trying to do too much in one step.

Can I turn a capability off without deleting it?

Yes. Every genie’s During tab has an on/off switch per capability — turning one off doesn’t remove its configuration, so you can turn it back on later exactly as it was.

Where do I see if a post-call action actually ran?

The Activity log, either globally or from a specific genie’s Activity tab — every action’s run is recorded there. If it failed, click into it: a Retry button lets you run it again without waiting for the next trigger.
Retry only appears for capability/tool runs, not knowledge syncs — for a failed knowledge sync, use Run now on the sync itself instead.

I don’t see a Notification Channels tab, or my Slack pings stopped

Account-wide channels (Slack, Telegram, and others) are connected from the Notification Channels tab on the Connections page. Once connected there, turn them on per genie from that genie’s Notify me tab — a channel being connected doesn’t mean every genie is pinging through it by default. See Notification Channels for the full setup for each type.

My WhatsApp notifications stopped after working fine before

WhatsApp notifications currently run through a shared testing number, which requires a one-time opt-in message from your phone that can expire after a period of inactivity. If pings have quietly stopped, this is the most likely reason — re-send the join message shown on the WhatsApp channel’s setup screen.

Do I need to know how to code to use Sync?

No. Everything described in this guide — connections, knowledge syncs, capabilities, post-call actions — is configured through the visual interface. Some advanced features (like the raw webhook option for post-call actions) are there for teams that want to go further, but they’re entirely optional.
