Mine is working now.

Please also notify me when this is fixed. Any workarounds for previously failed zaps as issue seems to be somewhat intermittent?

Same problem for me since yesterday. Replaying errored zaps works a few times, but it seems to have a time limit. Waiting a few minutes, then replaying the next one does the job, but it is very annoying.

Would you please add me to the list of affected users plese? Thanks

Me too!

We have experienced the same issue for the last 3 days. We have had the same zaps working for years! We have found out that replaying the Zap can make it run successfully, but this is not always on the first try (+ you consume more tasks). Our organization relies on many of these reports automated by Zapier so this has been a headache. 

 

Could anyone also add me to the list of affected users, please?

Don’t know if this will help anyone, or whether it is purely coincedence but we have two zaps that are calling the same app and both going to Google Drive on the REPLACE function. Set up identically, just a different source from the app and a different folder in Google Drive.

ZAP B lets call it, failed on the 7th but after that continued to work, so I looked into what was different in the set up. Zap B has the share “Anyone with a link” as an Editor enabled but Zap A didn’t. Yesterday (GMT) I set Zap A to be exactly the same and this morning it has run as expected, previously it had failed numerous days. I know there is a risk of making the sheet “”OPEN”” but if as a temporary measure it gets us out of this situation, its worth taking a risk until Zapier come up with a fix. I hope this might be a help for some, maybe not all but it has worked for us.

The fact this works with an “”OPEN”” sheet makes me think this is an authorisation issue on Google’s end.

I will keep monitoring these zaps but hopefully a fix is on the horizon.

Can we please be notified as well. Affecting us quite a bit.

 

Thanks!
