| Error message | Likely meaning (TL;DR) | Recommended next steps |
|---|---|---|
| Yodeck rejected the API token (Invalid or empty authentication token). Check that Token Name and API Token come from the same Yodeck token. | Most often the token name contains a space: Yodeck sends the name inside the authorization header and rejects any name with a space. Otherwise the name and value don't belong to the same token, or the token was deleted in Yodeck. | In Yodeck open Account Settings → Advanced Settings → API Tokens. If the token name has a space, generate a new token with a name that has none (for example xyte-connector), then re-authorize the connector with the new name and value. If the name has no space, generate a new token anyway and enter both values again. |
| Yodeck returned 403 — this API token's role cannot read screens. The token needs at least the Content & Device Manager role; Content Viewer is not enough. | The token's role is too low (for example Content Viewer), or it has no role on the workspace that holds the screens. | Generate a token with the Content & Device Manager role (or higher) on every workspace whose screens you want in Xyte, then re-authorize the connector. |
| Yodeck is currently rate-limiting requests. Please try again later. | Yodeck is temporarily throttling API calls. | Wait a few minutes and try again. During regular syncs Xyte retries automatically. |
| Unable to authenticate against Yodeck. | Xyte couldn't validate the credentials against Yodeck for a reason other than the ones above. | Confirm the Yodeck plan includes API access (Premium or Enterprise), check both values and try again. If it keeps failing, contact Xyte support. |
| A screen shows as Unavailable | The screen exists in Yodeck but isn't registered to a player yet. | Register (pair) the screen in Yodeck. It reports status on the next sync. |
| Connector is Active but Devices found is 0 | The Yodeck account has no registered screens, or the token's workspace role doesn't cover the workspace that holds them. | Register a screen in Yodeck, or add a role for the right workspace to the token. The count updates on the next sync (every few minutes). |
