VotePipe

Troubleshooting

Common issues and solutions

Votes Not Appearing

Checklist

  • Verify the provider is enabled in VotePipe
  • Check that the webhook URL is correct in your server list settings
  • Ensure the authentication secret/key matches
  • Check the Votes page to see if votes are being received
  • Review provider-specific setup guides

Discord Notifications Not Working

Checklist

  • Verify the Discord webhook URL is correct
  • Check that vote notifications are enabled (toggle switch)
  • Ensure the webhook hasn't been deleted in Discord
  • Verify the bot has permission to post in the channel
  • Use the Test Webhook button to verify connectivity
  • Check Discord server logs for errors

See the Discord setup guide for detailed instructions.

Server Callbacks Failing

Checklist

  • Verify your callback URL is publicly accessible
  • Check firewall rules allow incoming POST requests
  • Ensure your endpoint responds within the timeout limit
  • Verify the Authorization header matches your configured secret
  • Check server logs for error messages
  • Review the callback status on the Votes page

See the callback troubleshooting guide for more help.

Rate Limit Issues

Webhook Rate Limits

VotePipe has a rate limit of 500 requests/minute per organization. If you're hitting this limit:

  • Check for multiple webhook configurations pointing to the same provider
  • Verify server lists aren't sending excessive webhook requests
  • Contact support if you need a higher limit

Authentication Errors

Provider Authentication

  • Double-check the secret/key matches exactly (no extra spaces)
  • For HMAC providers, verify the signature algorithm matches
  • Regenerate the secret if needed (update both VotePipe and server list)
  • Check provider-specific authentication requirements
