If the error persists or if you are unable to load Honeycode, here are a few known causes that we've identified, which can help you troubleshoot the root of your particular situation.

  • VPN or firewall rules
    Some VPN/Firewall/Security software have been known to block requests made by Honeycode. If you have such software installed, you can request your IT administrator to add an exception for Honeycode.

  • Websocket connection configurations
    Some device configurations have proxy settings to block websockets, which may block requests made by Honeycode. You can check the network settings of your device to see if any particular websockets may be blocked.

  • Browser extensions or pop-up blockers
    You can check to ensure that your browser does not have any extensions or pop-up blockers that may be blocking Honeycode.

  • Browser updates
    Updating your browser to the most recent version may help clear up performance or loading issues.

  • Congested or slow network connections
    If you are on a slower connection, network lag may cause this error intermittently. If that be the case, a refresh should be able to load Honeycode.

For setting up VPN or Firewall rules:

Honeycode uses HTTPS protocol / Port 443, and the key domains to whitelist include: honeycode.aws
honeycodecommunity.aws
amazonaws.com

If none of these solutions help, please submit an issue report to us to further investigate. You can do so from your Dashboard in Honeycode by clicking on the Help ? icon in the left-hand panel > Report an issue.
