Platform availability

Available on 4 of 9 platforms

Health score?A 0-100 score computed nightly from four factors: maintained (40%: recent commits and steady activity), popular (25%: GitHub stars, log scale), easy to install (20%: platforms, install notes, setup guides, Docker image) and light to run (15%: minimum RAM, ARM support). When the source code has been checked, a fifth factor, security check (20%: automated scan for committed secrets, unsafe desktop-app settings, known-vulnerable dependencies and project hygiene; any serious finding caps it at 20), is added. Factors without data are left out and the rest are rescaled.

First-install notes

  • Set your Twingate login codes and URL Put your Twingate login codes (the access and refresh tokens) and your Twingate network URL into the setup command. If they're missing or point to the wrong Twingate network, the connector can't log in, so it won't create a private connection. source
  • Copy the example settings file first Copy the example settings file named values-example.yaml to values.yaml, then edit the new file. If you skip this, the connector may use placeholder settings and not join the right Twingate network. source
  • Tell it which local network to reach Pass the CIDR (a network range like 10.0.0.0/24) for the local devices you want to reach. If you leave it out or use the wrong range, the connector starts but can't send traffic to those apps. source

Common questions

What should I check if my Twingate Connector cannot log in or create a private connection?

Verify that the Twingate access and refresh tokens and the Twingate network URL are set correctly. If they are missing or point to the wrong Twingate network, the connector cannot log in and will not create a private connection.

What file step is required before configuring the DIY VPN setup?

Copy the example settings file named values-example.yaml to values.yaml, then edit the new file. If you skip this, the connector may use placeholder settings and not join the right Twingate network.

How do I configure a headless IoT gateway connector to reach local devices?

Pass the CIDR network range for the local devices you want to reach. If you leave the CIDR out or use the wrong range, the connector starts but cannot send traffic to those apps.

Where should I start diagnosing an offline or unhealthy Twingate Connector?

Open the Connector details page from the Remote Network section and review its status and time offset. If the connector is Offline, the host is likely down or has lost internet connectivity.
