Once you’ve created connections, you’ll need to manage them effectively. This guide covers viewing, editing, testing, and organizing your connections.

Viewing Your Connections

Accessing the Connections List

  1. Log into your Marketrix account at app.marketrix.ai
  2. Click “Connections” in the left sidebar

Connection Information Displayed

For each connection, you’ll see:
  • Name - The connection name you assigned
  • Type - Website or App connection
  • URL - The main URL of your connection
  • Status - Active, Inactive, or Error
  • Created Date - When the connection was created
  • Last Modified - When it was last updated

Connection Status Indicators

Active (Green) - Connection is working properly Inactive (Gray) - Connection is disabled Error (Red) - Connection has issues that need attention

Editing Connection Details

Basic Information Updates

  1. Click on a connection in your connections list
  2. Click “Edit” or the edit icon
  3. Update the information you want to change:
    • Connection name
    • Description
    • URL (if needed)
  4. Click “Save Changes”

Domain Configuration Updates

  1. Open the connection for editing
  2. Navigate to “Domain Settings” or “Allowed Domains”
  3. Add or remove domains as needed
  4. Click “Save Changes”
Common Updates:
  • Adding new subdomains

Advanced Settings (App Connections)

For app connections, you can also update:
  1. Authentication settings
  2. Rate limiting configuration
  3. Custom headers
  4. Environment settings

Testing Your Connections

Basic Connection Test

  1. Click on a connection in your list
  2. Click “Test Connection” button
  3. Review the test results:
    • URL accessibility
    • Domain configuration
    • Authentication (if applicable)

Agent Testing

The best way to test a connection is with an actual agent:
  1. Create a simple test agent linked to your connection
  2. Test the agent in the playground
  3. Verify the agent responds correctly
  4. Check that responses are appropriate for your connection

Integration Testing

Test your connection with a real integration:
  1. Create a widget integration for your connection
  2. Deploy the widget to your website
  3. Test the widget on your actual website
  4. Verify everything works as expected

Organizing Your Connections

Naming Conventions

Use consistent naming to keep connections organized: By Environment:
  • “Company Website - Production”
  • “Company Website - Staging”
  • “Company Website - Development”
By Purpose:
  • “E-commerce Store - Customer Support”
  • “E-commerce Store - Sales”
  • “Marketing Site - Lead Generation”
By Department:
  • “Support Portal - Technical”
  • “Support Portal - Billing”
  • “Support Portal - General”

Connection Categories

Organize connections by grouping related ones: Website Connections:
  • Main company website
  • Marketing landing pages
  • Blog or content sites
App Connections:
  • Customer portals
  • Admin dashboards
  • Internal tools
Environment Connections:
  • Production environments
  • Staging environments
  • Development environments

Connection Health Monitoring

Regular Health Checks

Perform these checks regularly:
  1. Test connection accessibility - Ensure URLs are still working
  2. Verify domain configuration - Check that domains are still correct
  3. Review agent performance - Make sure agents are working well
  4. Check integration status - Verify widgets are functioning

Monitoring Tools

Use these features to monitor your connections: Dashboard Overview:
  • Connection status indicators
  • Recent activity logs
  • Performance metrics
Connection Details:
  • Last test results
  • Error logs
  • Usage statistics
Agent Performance:
  • Response times
  • Success rates
  • User feedback

Troubleshooting Connection Issues

Common Problems and Solutions

Connection Shows as “Error”

Possible Causes:
  • Website URL is no longer accessible
  • Domain configuration is incorrect
  • Authentication credentials have changed
Solutions:
  1. Test the URL in a browser to ensure it’s accessible
  2. Check domain configuration for typos or missing domains
  3. Update authentication if credentials have changed
  4. Contact support if the issue persists

Agent Not Responding

Possible Causes:
  • Connection is inactive
  • Agent is not properly linked to connection
  • Domain restrictions are blocking access
Solutions:
  1. Check connection status - ensure it’s active
  2. Verify agent configuration - make sure it’s linked to the connection
  3. Review domain settings - ensure your domain is allowed
  4. Test in playground - verify the agent works there

Widget Not Appearing

Possible Causes:
  • Integration is not properly configured
  • Domain restrictions are blocking the widget
  • Website code is not correctly implemented
Solutions:
  1. Check integration settings - ensure it’s linked to the correct connection
  2. Verify domain configuration - make sure your domain is allowed
  3. Review website code - ensure the integration code is correctly placed
  4. Test on different pages - verify it works across your site

Getting Help with Issues

If you can’t resolve connection issues:
  1. Check the troubleshooting guide for detailed solutions
  2. Review connection logs for error messages
  3. Test with a simple setup to isolate the problem
  4. Contact support with specific error details

Connection Maintenance

Regular Maintenance Tasks

Weekly:
  • Review connection status
  • Check for any error indicators
  • Test critical connections
Monthly:
  • Review domain configurations
  • Update connection descriptions
  • Clean up unused connections
Quarterly:
  • Audit all connections
  • Review naming conventions

Backup and Recovery

Connection Backup:
  • Export connection configurations
  • Document connection settings
  • Keep records of domain configurations
Recovery Planning:
  • Know how to recreate connections
  • Have backup domain configurations
  • Document integration dependencies

Connection Limits and Upgrades
