Connection failure : "The Request Token for This Page Is Invalid"

This error might pop up when trying to connect X accounts to Metricool due to issues with the API authentication token. These tokens are essential for secure connections and verifying that the request comes from you. However, they can become invalid under certain circumstances.

Common Causes of Token Errors:

Token Expiry: Tokens can expire quickly, especially if the connection process takes too long.
Interrupted Connection Process: If the connection process is stopped or interrupted midway, the token becomes invalid.
Token Reuse: Attempting to reuse the same token can also result in errors.

How to Resolve the Issue:

Open a new tab in incognito mode ( or you can try with another browser)
Log in to Metricool and go to connections dashboard
Click the "Connect Account" button for X . A pop-up window will appear for authentication.
Introduce your X account credentials and follow the steps to complete the connection process.

⚠️ Due to changes in the X (Twitter) API, you will need to accept both authorizations to complete the connection flow if required.
