Plugin Won't Connect
The dashboard says Not Connected, or sending a message opens the install guide instead of building — here is how to get Studio and Revix talking again.
Quick checks
- Is Roblox Studio actually open, with your place loaded? Revix builds into an open place. There is no cloud copy of your game.
- Open the Plugins tab in Studio and click the Revix button. The Revix window appears. If it says
Disconnected, click the green Connect button. - Check which Roblox account Studio is signed into. It must be the same Roblox account linked to your Revix account.
- Wait ten seconds. After the first successful connect, the plugin retries on its own with a growing gap between attempts (3, 5, 10, 20, 30, then 60 seconds).
- Look at the Studio Output window. View tab → Output. Lines starting with
[Revixsay exactly what failed.
The plugin isn't installed, or isn't the current one
The Revix window has a version label in its bottom-right corner. It should read v7.2.
If the number is lower, the server may refuse the connection outright, and the refusal is silent — the widget just sits on Disconnected and the Output window shows a bare 403. There is no update banner.
- Install or update it.
- Fully close Roblox Studio and reopen it. Plugins load at startup.
- Open the Plugins tab, click Revix, then click Connect.
You can also start this from the dashboard: when no plugin is connected, sending a message opens the connect guide with an Install From Marketplace button.
The Revix window never appears
The Revix window only opens by itself once you have successfully connected at least once before. On a brand-new install nothing pops up on its own.
- In Studio, click the Plugins tab in the ribbon.
- Find the toolbar group named Revix and click the Revix button (its tooltip reads "Connect to Revix AI").
- The window opens, with a
v7.2label in the bottom-right corner.
If the button is missing from the Plugins tab entirely, the plugin did not install. Reinstall from the Creator Store and restart Studio.
Studio is signed into a different Roblox account
The plugin does not ask you to log in. It reads whichever Roblox account Studio is already signed into, and matches it against the Roblox account linked to your Revix profile.
If they do not match, the connection is rejected. In the Studio Output window you will see a 401 line; in the chat you may see:
That Studio session is connected to a different Revix account. In Studio, click the Revix button to reconnect with this account.
Fix it one of two ways:
- Sign Studio out and back in as the Roblox account you linked to Revix, then click Connect in the Revix window; or
- Link the Roblox account you actually use in Studio: go to your profile, open the Account tab, and use Reconnect Roblox.

"Allow HTTP Requests" — you probably don't need it
If you send a message with no live connection, the chat replies:
I cannot reach Roblox Studio. Open Studio, click the Revix button in the toolbar, and check that Allow HTTP Requests is on in Game Settings → Security.
Do the first half of that. The HTTP Requests setting is no longer a requirement — the current plugin does not depend on it, and that half of the sentence is stale wording we are fixing. Turning it on is harmless, but it will not fix a connection problem.
What does govern the plugin's network access is Studio's own permission prompt: the first time Revix contacts our servers, Studio asks whether to allow it. If you dismissed or denied that prompt, the Output window shows a NETWORK ERROR line. Restart Studio and click Connect again to get the prompt back, then allow it.
It connects, but scripts won't save
That is a separate permission. Studio asks once per plugin for consent to write scripts, and until you grant it every script write fails.
The dashboard shows a full-screen card headed One last permission to enable. Follow it:
- In Studio: File → Advanced → Manage Plugins.
- Find Revix, click the permissions icon.
- Turn on Script Injection — or choose Allow All if Studio shows you the popup directly.
- Back in the dashboard, click Done. The card closes on its own once Studio reports the permission.
The full clean reconnect
When nothing obvious is wrong, do all of this in order. It clears every stale piece of state.
- In the Revix window, click Disconnect if the button is showing.
- Close Roblox Studio completely.
- In the dashboard, reload the page.
- Reopen Studio and your place.
- Plugins tab → Revix → Connect.
- Wait for the status line to read Connected with a green dot, and for the dashboard header pill to show your game name with a green dot.
Two things worth knowing while you do this:
- Disconnect is sticky. If you press Disconnect, the plugin stops reconnecting by itself until you press Connect again. That is deliberate.
- Pressing Play hides the window. The Revix window disappears during a playtest and comes back a second or two after you press Stop, briefly showing
Connecting...before it readsConnectedagain. That is normal, not a fault.
Other things that look like a connection failure
- Several places open at once. Each open place is its own connection. The dashboard toolbar shows a Connected games menu — make sure the one selected is the place you are looking at. Switching is blocked while a build is running: "Switching is locked while Revix is working."
- Left idle for a while. A session goes stale after about ten minutes with no activity. Click Connect again.
- A modal reading "Plugin Disconnected". The link dropped mid-build, so the turn was force-stopped to avoid half-finished changes and wasted credits. Reconnect, then send
continue. - Team Create. Revix has not been tested in Team Create sessions. If a shared place behaves strangely, try the same request in a solo copy before reporting it.
Still stuck?
Before asking, grab: the version label in the Revix window, every [Revix line in the Studio Output window, the Roblox account Studio is signed into, and the exact wording on screen in the dashboard. Post those in the Revix Discord: discord.gg/SDtaPGkUP4.
