In order to share health record data on LunaDNA, you connect one or more Patient Portals from which your data is synced (pulled in from the Portal) on a regular basis. When you add a new connection, when we sync connections, and during the general maintenance of these connections, we may encounter issues with your Portal connection(s). You can view the status of your connection at any time in My Connections on your My Data page.


Your connection will have three primary statuses: 

  • Processing - Your portal connection is still being validated and completed.
  • Connected - Your portal connection is live and syncing.
  • Error Message - Something is causing a problem with this portal connection.


What do you do if the connection status on LunaDNA is "Processing"?


If the connection status is "Processing", the data from the patient portal is still processing and will be available once it passed through our Quality Control checks and Data Standardization.  If the portal is in the "Processing" status for more than 24 hours, please contact support at support@lunadna.com.


What do you do if the connection status on LunaDNA has an Error Message?


The following are possible error messages you may see with your portal connection:


Status NameDefinitionActions You May Want to Consider
Credential ErrorThis notification means that there was an error when using your credentials to log in to your patient portal.This may happen when credentials are updated in the patient portal or may just require the user to log in again.  To resolve this issue, simply open the Add & Manage Connections dialog in the Manage Data page, click on the connection that has this error message, and log in again.  If the issue still persists, please contact support@lunadna.com.
User InteractionThis notification means that there was an error with the connection that requires your interaction.You may visit your patient portal directly and see if the issue is described there, in some cases it is an approval to share information through the patient portal.  You may also open the Add & Manage Connections dialog in the Manage Data page on LunaDNA to troubleshoot that connection.
Security QuestionThis notification means that you have a security question set up on the patient portal and it is required for login.Portals with this type of security layer are not currently supported. If you want to connect your portal to LunaDNA, you may choose to disable the security questions in your patient portal (if that is permitted). Please keep in mind this is a layer of security on your portal you may not wish to remove.


If the error is a system error, you may click on Add & Manage Connections to try to determine more information.  Below is a list of system-related error messages and actions you may consider taking as a result. If you have questions or concerns about the status of one of your portals at any time, please contact LunaDNA support at: support@lunadna.com.
