Now that Alexa is no longer supporting IFTTT how will zapier be able to carry out alexa functions onto its various supported apps?

Hi @emdagem and @AustinMCrane,

I’m so sorry that you’re also being affected by this bug. I’ve gone ahead and added you both to the list of folks being impacted by this.

Thanks for everyone’s continued patience here. Really wish I had a workaround to suggest but I couldn’t find any successful workarounds reported. We’re unable to give any estimates as to when it will be resolved by but we’ll be in touch by email as soon as it’s sorted.

I have met the same trouble yesterday.When I use the zapier to connect the amazon alexa and google sheet it come to problem. I find if I don’t add the ‘Additional Prompt Question’,it work normally.And add it, the alexa say’oops, I’ve ran into a problem’.

Here are the images. 1) please note that one of them shows that a test zap works, and indeed it does as it is in my task list in any.do. 2) Any.do has tested this and also gets a successful test but the same message when they try to do a zap, “oops, I ran into a problem.”

Thanks for letting us know, @liujunfei. So sorry you’re running into this issue as well when adding the Additional Prompt. I’ve added you to the list of impacted users so we can notify you the minute it gets resolved. 

Please also add me to that list. Same thing happens but this time with the Things app. Thank you

Has this been fixed?  I was about to make a Zap for this function, but if it’s not working  yet I won’t bother.

Hey there, @PCB - thanks for sharing those screenshots! 

Do your mind testing something out for me, real quick? Can you try changing the prompt to something else? 

It’s possible you may be running into a known Alexa bug but want to see if this helps at all first. 🤞🏽Thanks for your help in this!

Hi can you please add me to the affected users as well? i’m having the same issue.
