Hi Agustin,

 

Thanks for reaching out to us. Could you please send me a PM with more information regarding your issue with signing into the Upwork Desktop App along with the screenshot with the error itself? I'll check that for you and assist you accordingly.

Found this topic because I'm with the same problem.

My login is via google account, I type the information requested and the connection never get through. I'm stuck on this loading screen.

 

Does anyone know what should I do?

Hi Jean, 


May I ask if you logged in with your Google credentials? If so, could you please try logging in to your Upwork account through a browser, go to your Connected Services page in your Settings page (Settings > Connected Services) and disassociate your Google account from your Upwork account. Once done, please log in to your desktop app with your Upwork credentials to see if the issue persists.

Hi!
I'm facing the same problem for my first connection... The message just tells me "An unknown error has occured".

I used the time tracker once quite a while ago, so this time I redownloaded the app and just can't get in to it.
Thanks for your help

Hi,
Thanks for the prompt answer. But I can't log in to the app, so I can't click my name on the lower left!
The error occurs when I try to log in with my email address and my password with the message "An unknown error has occurred"...?

Apologies for the confusion, Madeleine. One of our agents will reach out to you via support ticket in order to assist you further.

 

Thanks!

Thank you Andrea, but my problem is now solved thanks to your chat (I hadn't found it when I posted my message). I just had to delete cache and restart (in Settings)... Your UpWork team is all of great help!
