Troubleshooting
Solutions for frequent problems with sign-in, approvals, files and emails.
Find your problem in the list below. If the solution does not work, select Help at the bottom of the sidebar and write to your Growth lead.
Sign-in
I did not receive the invitation email
Look in your spam folder. If the email is not there, ask your Growth lead to send the invitation again.
The invitation link does not work
If the link expired, select Send me a new link. If you used the link before, sign in with the password that you made. Refer to If the link does not work.
I forgot my password
On the sign-in page, select Forgot? and then Email me a reset link. You can also select Email me a one-time sign-in code to sign in without a password.
The page tells me to wait before I try again
You tried to sign in too many times with an incorrect password. Wait some minutes. Then try again, or reset your password.
I can sign in, but I cannot see my project
Your account is not on a project, or Growth removed your access. Ask your Growth lead for an invitation. Refer to If you cannot open your project.
Approvals and tasks
I do not see the Approve button
Only the reviewer of a deliverable can approve it. The Reviewer column on Deliverables shows the reviewer. Other persons on your team can read the deliverable and write comments.
I approved a deliverable by mistake
Select Undo in the 10 seconds after you confirm. After that time, ask Growth to open the approval again.
I cannot change a task
You can change only the status of a task. Growth sets all the other fields. To ask for a change, write a comment on the task.
Worksheets
I cannot type in a field
A field with a lock is read-only. If the full worksheet is read-only, Trail Map shows "You can't edit this sheet." Ask Growth if you must change it.
My paste did not work
If a pasted value is not correct for a field, Trail Map pastes nothing. The message tells you which cell to correct. Correct the value and paste again.
I cannot start a new worksheet
You can have a maximum of 50 open worksheets. Archive a worksheet that you do not use. Then start the new worksheet.
Files and meetings
My file does not upload
The maximum size for an asset is 10 MB. A comment can have a maximum of 5 files, 10 MB each. Make the file smaller, or share a link to it.
A file or a video does not show in Preview
Some websites do not permit Trail Map to show their pages. For these files, select Open to see the file in a new tab.
A recording does not play in the page
Recordings from YouTube, Vimeo, Loom and Fathom play in the page. For other recordings, select the link, for example Watch on fathom.video.
Emails
I receive too many emails
Open Settings › Notifications and set the switches in Email me. Refer to Notifications.
I do not receive emails from Trail Map
Look in your spam folder. Then make sure that the switches in Settings › Notifications are on.
