It's so frustrating, the documentation is clearly missing out a step or a pre-requisite. I've wiped my box and started from scratch twice and still no joy. No logs to speak of - I'm a technical chap and still struggling to get it work. Says it's linked, the folder's been created automatically but nothing uploads 😩
