Application failed to connect to the integration
If the error occurs while connecting an integration
Reason
If you are trying to add a new integration, this error may mean that you entered an invalid URL for the integration or network problems that occurred when connecting to the external source.
Solution
Check whether the URL of the integration is entered correctly, the integration is available in your browser, and the network settings are correct (especially the firewall settings).
If the integration is unavailable, wait until it is available again or consult the integration vendor.
If the error occurs for an already connected integration
Reason
For a previously added integration, this error indicates a communication problem with the integration (the integration is not responding or there is a network problem).
Solution
Check the availability of utilities and network settings (especially the firewall settings).
If the integration is unavailable, contact the integration supplier.
If the integration is available, click the Re-check connection button.

Webhooks required by the application are not registered in the integration
Context
Webhooks are a mechanism for notifying external applications about changes in the integration (e.g., creating a task, editing a task).
The BigPicture/BigGantt application cannot work properly without webhooks defined for the integration.
For specific integrations (e.g., Jira Cloud), before adding the integrations to our Application, it is necessary to add the webhooks manually.
Additionally, the mechanism contained in the Application checks whether all webhooks are registered for a given integration.
If the error occurs while connecting an integration
Reason
At least one of the necessary webhooks is missing. When adding a new integration, the application prevents it from being added where one of the end webhooks is missing.
In the case of an existing integration, unregistering one of the necessary webhooks causes the integration to go into the Unavailable state.
Solution
Check whether all desired webhooks are registered. If they are not, add them (refer to the information below) and try again.

Webhook registration process for Jira Cloud instance
For Jira Cloud, the webhook validation mechanism cannot register the webhooks by itself, so it is necessary to register them following the instructions below.
- The URL address for which the webhooks must be registered is given in the appropriate window when adding the integration: Jira Cloud: Settings> System> Advanced> Webhooks.
- Click the Create a Webhook button.
- Name: BigPicture webhooks
- Status: Enabled
- URL: provided in the creation dialog box
- Events: All issues
- Check all checkboxes except Exclude body.
- Click the Create button.
After creating the webhook, you should see the following information:
