Unauthorised when selecting the Dimensions data source

This error can have several possible causes.

  1. The **Access Connect Service** on the server is not logged into an account with the relevant permissions (use the Domain Administrator account).

  2. Your database has not been synchronised with Workspace. Log into Dimensions as the relevant user. If you have multiple databases, sync all of them for the error to disappear.

  3. The email address for the Workspace administrator accounts may have changed without Workspace being updated, meaning that person is no longer recognised as an administrator.

To fix point 1, please speak with your IT department to get the Access connect Service running with a server profile with full domain admin permissions.

To fix point 2, you will need to go into Dimensions and sync all the accounts with Workspace using the following steps:

  1. Select **System**, then **Data Utilities**.

  2. Select Synchronise aCloud apps.

To fix point 3, our support team will need to investigate, run scripts or liaise with the hosting or development teams. For help contacting us, see our Get support in Access Digital Tax.
