After doing edits to a zap task the last step in this is a Gmail email.   That step is is asking me to reconnect the account.   It is using the same email ( Zapier account) and Google drive and when I click trough the continue buttons and after review of sharded Zapier permissions, I click continue i get this error message.

 

Zapier could not connect to your account.

The app returned "Insufficient Permission".

 

I tried a few other accounts and got the same results.  Checked Google account permissions and linked apps and all look linked with sufficient permissions.   Any insight on the problem resolution?  This is a paid Subscription version of Zapier and Google Enterprise.

Thanks Troy!  It is strange because it is working under the current zap.  Once the edits in Draft mode were made it is causing this reconnect error.  The modifications had no interface with this once task.
