 Connect to mongodb on the UniFi controller host:
 ''mongo --port 27117''
+Switch to the UniFi Database:
+''use ace''
+Show all admins:
+''db.admin.find()''
+Note the "ubic_uuid" associated with each account.
+Show all settings:
+''db.setting.find()''
+Look for the line that begins:
+''{ "_id" : ObjectId("[objectid]"), "key" : "super_cloudaccess", "enabled" : true, "ubic_uuid" : "[uuid]"''
+and note the "ubic_uuid" listed in this line.
+If the ubic_uuid matches an account that no longer exists, the cloud connectivity issue may be resolved by changing it to the uuid for a current Ubiquiti community account. If the current UniFi controller account doesn't have a ubic_uuid shown with its object in the db.admin.find() output, log into that account on the UniFi controller and attempt to enable cloud access for that user. Note that the UniFi controller may not show anything different, but go back to mongo and run db.admin.find() again and a ubic_uuid should now be associated with the admin account.
+Use the command:
+''db.setting.update({ _id: ObjectId("[objectid]") }, { $set: { ubic_uuid: "[uuid of desired user]"}})''
+to update the cloud access to a current account
+Use ''exit'' to leave the mongo CLI
+Refresh the Cloud Access settings page, and the option to toggle Cloud Access should now be visible, along with a button to Disable and Remove cloud access. It may be necessary to disable cloud access and then turn it on again to restore full connectivity with the new credentials, but these options should now be visible where they were not previously. After updated credentials are entered, Cloud Access should function as expected.
