Failed to update auto-import (${response.status}).

Error message

Failed to update auto-import (${response.status}).

What it means

Thrown when toggling auto-import of new plugins for an integration fails with a non-2xx response. The mutation POSTs {autoImportNewPlugins} with a 15s timeout and throws getRequestError(payload, response, ...) on failure; the message is the server's error text or the fallback "Failed to update auto-import (<status>).", with 403 {error:'reauth'} upgraded to ReauthRequiredError.

Solutions

1. Roll back the optimistic UI toggle to the prior value (variables.autoImportNewPlugins is available in onError) and surface the error.
2. On 404, refresh the integration list — the instance no longer exists.
3. On 403, confirm the user's role; only admins/owners can change org integration settings.
4. Retry once on 5xx/network timeout before showing a persistent error.

Example fix

// before
onError: (error) => { toast(error.message); }
// after
onError: (error, variables) => {
  queryClient.setQueryData(integrationQueryKeys.list(orgSlug), (old) =>
    rollbackAutoImport(old, variables.connectorInstanceId, !variables.autoImportNewPlugins));
  toast(error.message);
}

// before toggling
if (typeof nextValue !== "boolean") throw new Error("autoImportNewPlugins must be a boolean.");
if (!hasOrgAdminRole(userRole)) throw new Error("Only admins can change auto-import.");

function isReauthError(e: unknown): e is ReauthRequiredError {
  return e instanceof ReauthRequiredError;
}

try {
  await updateAutoImportMutation.mutateAsync({ connectorInstanceId, autoImportNewPlugins: next });
} catch (error) {
  queryClient.setQueryData(key, (old) => rollback(old, !next)); // undo optimistic toggle
  if (isReauthError(error)) { startReauth(); return; }
  showToast(error.message);
}

When it happens

Trigger: PUT/POST of the auto-import setting returns non-ok: 401/403 (expired session or insufficient role — often requires admin), 404 (connector instance was removed concurrently), 422 (value not a boolean or instance not in a state that supports auto-import), 5xx, or response later than the 15000ms timeout.

Common situations: Toggling the switch on an integration whose instance was deleted in another tab; non-admin member flipping an admin-only setting; flaky network at the 15s limit; server rejects auto-import for connectors without discovery support.
