## Common questions

### What Nightscout authentication does the uploader need?

It needs a Nightscout subject and access token created specifically for this uploader.

### Why does the setup recommend a separate LibreLink Up follower?

Creating a new follower just for the uploader helps avoid temporarily locking up your personal account while troubleshooting configuration problems.

### Can the uploader be hosted separately from Nightscout?

Yes, users have hosted the LibreLink uploader separately from Nightscout, for example on Northflank.

### When running the required Nightscout server in Docker, do I need to edit the compose file?

Yes, edit the Docker Compose file before starting the setup. If you skip the edits, the setup may not start or may connect to the wrong places.

### Is there an Unraid Community Application template?

The Unraid support thread is only a placeholder for a Community Application template.
