# Xero
### Connect Xero with MESA
When you're setting up your first workflow with Xero, you will need to connect Xero with MESA. Click on the **Connect with Xero** button.
You will brought to a screen with MESA asking for permissions. Click on **Allow access**.
Afterwards, you will be brought back to your current workflow and you are all set! MESA is now connected with your Xero account.

{% hint style="info" %}
If you are seeing a *Could not identify your Xero account* error when your workflow runs, you will want to make sure that you only have one Xero connection per Xero account in MESA at a time. This indicates that you might have more than one Xero connection.
{% endhint %}
1\. To resolve this, login into your Xero account:
2\. From the top right hand corner, click on the 9 dotted icon and **Manage app connections**.
3\. Locate the connected app MESA and click to **Disconnect** it and confirm to **Disconnect** it again.
4\. Once MESA is no longer a connected app, you will want to [connect Xero with MESA](#connect) again.
### Technical Notes
### I don't see my Xero workflow activating when I update something in Xero?
MESA workflows that contain Xero [Triggers](https://docs.getmesa.com/workflow-builder/triggers) (such as **Contact Updated**) will run on a polling system. Meaning, on every hour or whatever the selected frequency is selected in your MESA workflow, MESA will look for any recent activity in Xero. As a result, you may not see immediate activity in your MESA workflow until the frequency hits.
In Xero triggers, you can find the polling system by selecting the **More Options** button, then the **Schedule** field.
You can keep the default frequency or adjust it. Once the frequency hits, MESA will process every single task that has accrued within the previous timeframe.
