Troubleshooting: emails not syncing into the Hub

When the Email Hub stops ingesting new messages — diagnose in 3 steps.

If the Email Hub stops pulling new messages, walk through these three checks.

Check 1: token expiry

OAuth tokens can be revoked by the user, by Workspace admin policy changes, or by Google/Microsoft when account passwords change. Open the Email Hub account settings — if you see "Reconnect required", click it and re-complete OAuth. The connector will resume from where it stopped.

Check 2: label or folder scope

If you originally synced only the "OMB-Sync" Gmail label, new emails that don't carry that label won't appear. Either update the Gmail filter rule, or expand the label scope in OMB Cloud account settings.

Check 3: throttling

For very large inboxes, Google/Microsoft enforce per-account API rate limits. If you're seeing slow sync rather than complete stoppage, the connector is being throttled. It will catch up over a few hours; no action required.

Force a manual resync

From account settings, click "Resync" — this re-reads the last 7 days of messages without duplicating already-ingested ones. Useful if you suspect anything was missed.

Last resort

If none of the above works, disconnect and reconnect the account. This is non-destructive: ingested history is preserved.
