Getting these messages for the past few days: 

Trigger partner failure: Unable to retrieve reviews: Quota exceeded for quota metric 'V4 General Requests' and limit 'V4 General Requests per minute' of service 'mybusiness.googleapis.com' for consumer 'project_number:466514807953'.

 

This is not a problem withmy Zaps. This seems indicative of a platform limitation between Zapier and Google APIs. Please advise.

I solved it by publishing without doing a test first. Once published I edited the zap and it worked

No, I am not. My customers get one to two Google Business Profile reviews per week. Hardly an extreme case. In addition there are only five Zaps in our account set up that are triggered by Google. Again, not extreme at all. Thus clearly an issue between Zapier and Google. It is similar to the YouTube issues Zapier is having.

Any updates on this? Running through the same issue. I just started using zappier, and it barely runs once a week. I can’t possibly be hitting the API limit, not even close.

Hey there, @Code4food! I wanted to pop in and see if you were still seeing this error?

If so, I’d definitely recommend reaching out to support as @MohSwellam mentioned. They’ll be able to dig into your logs and hopefully get to the bottom of this with you.

Keep us posted! 

Hello, my name is Faaris. For now, I am addressing it by conducting a retest on my ZAP :)

Any update? This issue is infuriating.

Hi,

I am facing the same issue. It seems this is a year old problem. As the project number is same for everybody, this seems to be an issue between Zapier and Google Reviews. Please guide if there are any possible solutions.

Error code: Error while retrieving: Unable to retrieve reviews: Quota exceeded for quota metric 'V4 General Requests' and limit 'V4 General Requests per minute' of service 'mybusiness.googleapis.com' for consumer 'project_number:466514807953'.

Thanks,

Rohit

same problem here and it is crazy that there is no solution to it.

Same issue for us

Can I please be added to list of affected people? I’m encountering this issue.

Thanks

I think it’s the same thing we’re now hitting, but it’s happening when trying to turn a zap on - we get an email with the quota limit hit for google business, and the zap doesn’t turn on.

It started with the zap not being triggered for a few weeks even though we had google reviews coming in. (that is specifically that the zap wasn’t triggered, rather than it being triggered and erroring).

Same issue.  It looks like my last successful Zap was on Nov 29th.  I assume by the number of people having this problem Zapier is working on a fix?  Is this a hover-in-place situation or something we need to do?

Hi @Code4food , 

 

It seems you are exceeding your Quota limits. Google does have a very high API limit though so not sure why you would run into that error. You can read more about the API Limits here

 

https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/reporting/core/v4/limits-quotas

 

This is in regards to Google Analytics, you can google your app if its not this one to check what are your API Limits

We have sort of worked around this now by duplicating the zap and running that one instead 😅.

Yep, running in the same bug. It's exhausting, this is taking roughly 75% of my Zapier error resolution time.

Also happening here, has anyone found a fix?

This problem just started for me as well.

Hitting the same error :’(

hey so basically the error can sometimes happen because of an initial error. The ZAP is running like every 2 minutes for example because if it was running like every 0.5 seconds than you’d need some serious hardware and not to mention a fat wallet. So when the initial error happens the zap experiences an error for one reason or another, thus causing the zap to fail to run complete. In our case we’re pulling reviews from google my business so it doesn’t reply to the review. Most of you said you guys aren’t getting a lot of reviews but if you wait like 2-3 more reviews then the zap wont have the same issue. go to the history of the zap and see if you get an option to retry the zap. Most likely, the zap will run again and be successful but if you’ve manually replied to the review already it would be pointless. If you don’t get the option to retry the zap its probably saying waiting on one part of your workflow. you have to remember that this is a third party app that is acting as an interface between primary apps so there’s going to be some inevitable time outs and subsequent time out errors. so you can try to manually run the zap and see if it works now. If it doesnt Zapier needs to figure out a solution.

Yes, I did reach out to Support. Nothing yet. In fact, I have two tickets in now: one for the issue I asked about above, and one for a Facebook error that comes sometimes appears when using Zapier to place a a photo post:

Facebook Pages

Please reduce the amount of data you're asking for, then retry your request

 

Zapier is aware, but nothing has come of it yet.
