🔧 Troubleshooting & Common Issues
Scanning Issues
”No assets found” after scanning
- Make sure your place has assets with references (decals, sounds, animations, meshes)
- Try switching to Script Mode (Flow Max) if assets are loaded dynamically
- Check that your
.ROBLOSECURITYcookie is valid and not expired
Scan hangs or takes forever
- Large places with many scripts can take longer
- Try the Instances only mode instead of Scripts
- Restart AssetFlow and try again
- Check your internet connection
Plugin shows “Disconnected”
- Make sure AssetFlow desktop app is running
- In the plugin, click Reconnect
- If still disconnected, restart Roblox Studio
- Reinstall the plugin from the Creator Store
Upload Issues
”API key required” when trying to upload
- You need an Open Cloud API key configured in Accounts
- Go to the Roblox Creator Dashboard to create one
- Make sure it includes
asset:read,asset:write, andasset-permissions:writescopes
Upload fails with “403 Forbidden”
- Your API key may be missing the required scopes
- If uploading to a group, the key needs group-scoped permissions
- Your key may have expired — create a new one
Upload is very slow
- Flow tier: 8 concurrent uploads (Normal mode)
- Flow+/Flow Max: Fast Mode with 15 concurrent uploads
- Enable Fast Mode in the Configure & Reupload modal
- The Flow tier only has Normal mode; Flow+/Flow Max can toggle between Normal and Fast
”Asset already exists” error
- Enable Skip Owned Assets in Settings to avoid reuploading what you already have
- Or just skip that specific asset in the selection
Account Issues
Cookie expired
.ROBLOSECURITY cookies expire after a period of inactivity. To refresh:
- Log in to roblox.com in your browser
- Copy the new
.ROBLOSECURITYcookie - Update it in AssetFlow’s Accounts page
API Key not working
- Verify the key has the correct scopes
- Make sure your User ID matches the key’s owner
- Test the key using the Test button in Accounts
- Create a new key if needed
Application Issues
App won’t start
- Check that no other instance of AssetFlow is running
- Try running as Administrator
- Check the Windows Event Viewer for crash logs
- Reinstall the latest version from the website
UI is glitchy or not rendering
- Toggle dark/light mode (if available)
- Restart the application
- Update your graphics drivers
Can’t find a feature
- Check the navigation sidebar on the left
- Some features are tier-limited (Script Mode = Flow Max, Group Upload = Flow+)
- If you believe a feature should be available, share the details in the AssetFlow Discord so the team can investigate

- Join the AssetFlow Discord
