Help us to help you
You want to use our Shopify plugin, but receive error messages when installing it? Please check the following points in advance:
Account Data
Have you completed all your data under "My Account -> Settings -> My Data"?
You can only successfully establish a connection when all data have been entered.
Users
Have you activated access to the "REST API" for the user who wants to connect to CleverReach via the plugin? If you receive the error message "The user has no API access“ or "The user does not have the necessary rights“ you haven’t activated the REST API access for them yet.
REST API access must be enabled for the user by the account admin.

Details on Error Messages
Error Message "Your CleverReach account is disconnected"
If you receive the error message that your account is no longer connected, please enter your CleverReach login details and establish the connection once again. If you receive another error message, please contact our support team (support@cleverreach.com).
Error Message "An error occurred during synchronization"
If you receive the error message that an error occurred when trying to establish a connection, please restart the synchronization. If that doesn’t work or you receive an error message once again, please contact our support team (support@cleverreach.com).
Error Message "Error – An unknown error has occurred. Please try again later.”
When you receive the error message "An unknown error has occurred", you’re probably using an outdated version of the plugin, browser version or third party cookies are not permitted.
Please try to connect with Chrome or Firefox in the latest version. Browsers such as Internet Explorer or Safari unfortunately are not supported.
It’s also helpful to allow third party cookies. When using Google Chrome and you’ve activated the third party cookies blocker, the error appears. If you are using Safari as your browser and have "cross-site tracking" enabled, the error also occurs.
Find more details in our HelpCenter post.
Error Message "Bad Request: maximum attribute count exceeded":
You have created too many data fields in your CleverReach account. You can create a maximum of 45 data fields. The Shopify plugin automatically creates 17 data fields during the initial import, such as first name, last name, address, etc.
Delete all data fields from your CleverReach account you no longer need or that are not filled with data.
Error Message "(InitialSyncTask) failed due to extended inactivity period":
This means, the synchronization takes longer than expected. At this point the timeout in the shop or plugin should be increased. Please send us further details as described below.
