Common Issues

Authentication Failures

  • Verify that your API token is valid and hasn’t expired
  • Check that the token type matches your access level (personal vs workspace)
  • Ensure the API token has necessary permissions

Missing Projects

  • For personal tokens: Verify you have access to the projects
  • For workspace tokens: Confirm admin privileges
  • Check the dashboard filter pattern configuration

Connection Timeouts

  • Verify the hostPort URL is correct
  • Check network connectivity to Hex
  • For on-premise installations, ensure firewall rules allow access

Rate Limiting

  • Hex APIs may have rate limits
  • Consider adjusting the ingestion schedule if you encounter rate limit errors
  • Contact Hex support if persistent rate limiting issues occur

Troubleshooting

Workflow Deployment Error

If there were any errors during the workflow deployment process, the Ingestion Pipeline Entity will still be created, but no workflow will be present in the Ingestion container.
  • You can then Edit the Ingestion Pipeline and Deploy it again.
  • From the Connection tab, you can also Edit the Service if needed.
