Why is my Linked Account Idle?

An overview of Merge's "Idle" sync status

Updated over 10 months ago

How does an account become Idle?

Linked Accounts enter an Idle state if any of the following occurs

  1. The Linked Account has not had a successful sync in 2 weeks

  2. You have not made an inbound request to the Linked Account for 2 weeks

  3. You have not responded to a webhook for the Linked Account in 2 weeks

How do I make an account active again?

There are 2 ways:

  1. If the Linked Account became Idle due to inactivity: Force re-sync the Linked Account through the dashboard or via API, or make an inbound request to Linked Account

  2. If the Linked Account became Idle due to failing syncs: Relink the account
