Known issues and workarounds

 

Please take into account our advice and known limitations.

 

  • In the newest version of the Layer2 Cloud Connector (7.8+) pop-ups don’t work anymore. If you try to connect to the Google API’s you will get a 500 Error, once the API needs the confirmation from the user account.
  • If you are installing more APIs from Google, you have to install it all at once and then restart your machine. After a new API installation, you may have to restart the machine to get the entries correct and runnable for the PowerShell-Script.
