Gmail error: The app returned "Recipient address required"


Wix has asked me to recreate all my Zaps as they are updating infrastructure.  I have a Zap that sends an auto email when a contact form is submitted.  This Zap has been working flawlessly for years.  When recreating the new Zap and testing it,  I get the following error:  The app returned “Recipient address required”

 

I can’t seem to find a solution to this.  Not only does the new Zap not work, but I went back and looked at the original Zap to see if I was missing any configuration.  I decided to test the original Zap without making any edits and it also now gives me the same error.  Please help.

Hi ​@Jaminvff 

The TO field expects a valid email address value. (e.g. test@tester.com)

You have a non-email address value mapped to the TO field.

In order to get around the problem, I just published the Zap without passing the test.  The operation seems to work fine now.  I guess it just wasn’t recognizing the value in the test phase.
