When to re-link a brokerage connection
MFA changes, expired consent, and institution outages explained.
Quick actions
Jump straight to the place that usually fixes this.
Re-link when your institution changes MFA, you reset a password, Plaid consent expires, or sync status shows action required.
Re-linking refreshes Plaid access without duplicating existing accounts when the institution and account mask match.
If positions disappear after re-linking, wait for the next sync and contact support with the institution name and last four digits.
