Fix error 101

Log in to your bank's website.

In a new tab or a different browser, sign in to your bank's website to see if you can get in without any errors.

Check if your account is active.

Your account is considered active if there’s an existing balance, or if there were transactions in the past 12 months.

Acknowledge the prompt, then go back and refresh your account in QuickBooks Online.
