​
Sign-in never shows the Allow button

Only accounts on a dealership’s team can connect apps. Accept your AutoFire team invitation first, then connect again.

​
”This sign-in is not connected to an AutoFire dealership”

The app’s connection was disconnected in the dashboard, or the dealership was removed. Remove AutoFire from the app and connect it again to choose a dealership.

​
401 Unauthorized

  • Signed-in apps: reconnect so the app can refresh its tokens.
  • Keys: confirm the header uses Bearer, followed by one space and the complete key, which begins with af_mcp_live_.
  • Check Dashboard → MCP & API for expiration, revocation, or disconnection.
  • Restart the client after updating its environment variable.

​
403 Forbidden

The credential is valid but does not authorize the requested operation. Reconnect with the permission selected, or create a new key with it; existing keys cannot be expanded after creation.

​
Tool is missing

AutoFire advertises only tools authorized by the credential. Also check client-side enabled_tools or tool allowlists.

​
413 Request too large

The MCP request exceeded 128 KiB. Shorten the tool arguments or send fewer at once. AutoFire list tools already cap results at 50.

​
429 Too many requests

Honor the Retry-After header, slow the workflow, and avoid retry loops. Use pagination and cache non-sensitive results inside your approved workflow where appropriate.

​
Monthly allowance used

The error names the plan’s limit and the reset date. Usage is shown under Dashboard → MCP & API. Upgrade the plan under Manage subscription for a higher limit; see MCP security.

​
Vehicle or lead not found

The record may not exist, or it may belong to a different dealership. Cross-dealership UUIDs intentionally return no data.

​
Still blocked

Send the approximate timestamp, client name/version, HTTP status, and the key prefix or app name shown in the dashboard to AutoFire support. Never send the complete key or customer data.
