FAQs
When I log in to the no-code workbench on the phone, I click Skip for syncing the user information (as shown in Figure 10). How do I sync the user information after binding the WeLink account?
Go to the environment configuration page, choose Integrated Connection > Identity Authentication, click WeLink, and click Sync Now in the User Synchronization area. User information will be synchronized.
