When a critical error is reported for an existing Zap:

1. Access the Zapier account associated with the email "XXXXXXX@XXXXXXXXXXXXX.com" Zapier Manager: Find Zap
2. Locate the Zap titled "Golf Swing Lesson Booking System" using its Zap ID.
3. Open the Zap editor for the identified Zap Zapier Manager: Find Zap
4. For each step reporting a "Network Error", click on the connection for that app and select "Reconnect" or "Update connection" to re-establish a valid link Zapier Manager: Find Zap
5. Verify that the connected accounts for all steps are active and have the necessary permissions Zapier Manager: Find Zap
6. Carefully review all fields within both steps of the Zap, specifically looking for any field that appears corrupted or is preventing the Zap from being saved or published (referred to as "broken f4 field") Zapier Manager: Find Zap
7. If a problematic field is found, attempt to re-select the data for that field or re-map it. If necessary, delete and re-add the affected step, then reconfigure it. Zapier Manager: Find Zap
8. Test each step individually to confirm that network errors are resolved and all fields are correctly configured Zapier Manager: Find Zap
9. Attempt to turn the Zap "On" or "Publish" it Zapier Manager: Turn Zap On/Off

Expected Outcome: The "Golf Swing Lesson Booking System" Zap is successfully published and running without network errors, and the issue with the "broken f4 field" is resolved.
