Invalid API key
Verify the Checkmarx One API key is correct and active. Generate a new API key from Checkmarx One → Settings → Identity and Access Management → API Keys if needed
Wrong tenant URL
Verify the tenant URL matches the Checkmarx One region. Use the Supported Checkmarx One regions table to confirm the correct base URL
Insufficient API key scope
Verify the API key has read access to projects, scans, and results in the Checkmarx One tenant
Network connectivity
Verify Cortex Cloud can reach the Checkmarx One tenant URL. Check firewall rules, proxy configurations, and the configured egress path
No findings appear after setup
No projects mapped
Verify at least one Checkmarx project is mapped to a Cortex Cloud repository on the Select Projects step of the integration wizard. Only mapped projects are ingested
Wrong scan type enabled
Verify the correct scan type (SAST or SCA) is enabled for the type of Checkmarx One projects in the tenant
No completed Checkmarx scan
