Troubleshooting
- Ensure that the email and name filters have at least 3 characters to avoid validation errors.

- If SSL certificate validation fails, consider enabling the option to ignore SSL issues, but be aware of security risks.
- Timeout errors may occur if the server is slow to respond; increase the timeout setting if needed.
