Hey a 426 error is a standard HTTP status code which tells you that an upgrade is required to perform the action you are trying to do. Does this make sense to you in the context of what you’re trying to do? For example, are you trying to use apps that are not part of your plan?

No, because in Zapier that is not true.

A 426 error is a random error they give for the zapier servers took too long processing the zap. So it wasn’t the apps I was using, since they were all Google apps. I heard back from customer support. My zap was too big to turn on in the editor. But thanks for trying to give me an answer. A  word to the the wise, a Zap should not be over 100 tasks.

I am sharing information and updating information from more than a 100 spreadsheets of data so it was big. But I was doing it the long way. I have formulas on some sheets so  was using look up and update tasks. I can make a few changes to split the zap. I just wanted 1 zap to do all. A bit ambitious, but I like having the drafting space. Plus, I can make a copy and decrease both to do separate steps. No biggie. But it was a giant! Haha!
