@appleimperio I tried the exact same Zap step and received the same error.  Then I tried it again and it worked...here is an interesting article on some of the issues with this Zap: https://zapier.com/help/doc/common-problems-google-calendar#my-quick-add-event-action-isnt-behaving-the-way-that-i-expect

Might want to use the Create Detailed Event instead.

@appleimperio Can you go to the Task History for the Stopped Zap, scroll to the step where the Zap stopped and take a screen shot of the Data In?
