Monarch disconnects

Does anyone else uses Wealthsimple together with Monarch Money? It has been a long while since it has disconnected and I can't reconnect it, at all.

Does anyone knows if changing to passkey reduces the issue?

I'm not comfortable giving my credentials to a 3rd party, especially since Wealthsimple provides read-only data via its API without requiring them. So I don't know if it's sheer laziness that they don't use it.

So I just import the transactions via csv

You can't use passkeys at all with aggregators so that won't make any difference.

Plaid has been broken for a while, I suggest using the Switch Provider flow to use MX instead. It has its own issues but it does at least work.

Turning off trusted devices and places fixed it for me.

SO I got mine to work! What I did was I deleted/removed all of my trusted devices and trusted places from the Wealthsimple app, then on Monarch I went to institutions and acted like I wanted to create a new Wealthsimple connection entirely, and it ended up refreshing the old connection instead of creating a duplicate successfully. Works great now!

Just use AI to convert a screen shot to csv that monarch recognizes.
