Troubleshoot sign-in links and verification codes
If a sign-in code expired or a login link looks wrong, the fastest fix is usually to start the sign-in flow again.
First things to try
- request a fresh sign-in link from the Sandtime.io home page or the sign-in page,
- check spam or junk folders,
- confirm the mailbox can receive messages from
sandtime.io, - if you copied the link out of an email app, try opening the mailbox in a browser instead.
If messages do not arrive
Sometimes the recipient domain blocks or bounces authentication emails. In that case:
- verify the email address carefully,
- ask your IT team to review inbound mail filtering,
- sign in another way on the same address, as below.
Sign in another way, on the same address
Your account is identified by its email address, not by the method you used last time. Continue with Google, Continue with Microsoft, Continue with Yahoo, and Continue with Apple all open the same account as Continue with email, as long as the address behind them is the same one. When an emailed code will not arrive, that is usually the quickest way in, and nothing about the account changes because of it.
If the address itself is wrong rather than the delivery, it cannot be corrected from settings. See How to change your email address.
When Apple reports the account is not linked
Signing in with Apple can report that the account is not linked yet. Open your Apple ID settings, revoke Sandtime.io access, then sign in again. That is the fix the sign-in page itself offers.
When the link itself seems damaged
Some email clients or redirectors can break long authentication links while copying or opening them. Opening the email in a browser often avoids that issue.
After you get in
If the projects, timesheets, or reports you expect are missing once you are signed in, you are probably looking at a different organization rather than at lost data. See Find data that appears missing after sign-in.
