We are making major enhancements to Merge Dashboard’s Linked Accounts section to make our integrations management capabilities even better to help your support teams easily identify and address end user errors. We are excited to rollout the following changes.
There’s a brand new “Data” page so you can view and configure data sync and access settings for a specific Linked Account.
There’s a brand new "Logs" page under each Linked Account so you can access an instant view all API request logs and webhooks related to a specific Linked Account. You don’t need to filter down in the Logs page anymore.
Detailed Error Messages is now in general availability. Save your customer success team’s time with detailed error messages in Merge Link. When your customer cannot successfully connect to certain integrations or cannot access certain fields, they’ll see a specific error message so they can troubleshoot it themselves.
Watch a 3 minute demo of the feature.
