Troubleshooting
- When I copy a link to the PDF and send to my client, they get an error that looks something like this:
- The links you see on the TRIPBOARD are only valid for 24 hours.
- Reload the TRIPBOARD and get a new link. Ideally, you'd send them to their TRIP PAGE so they can download the PDF whenever they are ready. But if you have to send them the link to the PDF: Make sure they download it within 24 hours or get a new link again.
- The date in my generated PDF is wrong
- The generated date included INSIDE the PDF is in UTC
- I can't delete a PDF
- Check with your Team Owner/Admin to delete PDFs
- I cannot CREATE NEW PDF
- Only Team Members can create PDFs
- Co-Planners and Trip Coordinators cannot create PDFs
