Planning Pod authentication error in Zapier


Hello Zapier Community,

I’m hoping someone here has run into this before.

I’m trying to connect my Planning Pod account to Zapier, but I consistently receive the following error:

“Authentication failed: We could not find an account with the provided credentials.”

What’s confusing is:

  • I can log directly into Planning Pod without any issues using the same username and password
  • I’ve tried multiple times and even recreated the connection

🔧 Troubleshooting I’ve already done:

  • Used Chrome Incognito (to rule out cache/cookies)
  • Enabled pop-ups and permissions
  • Manually entered credentials (no autofill)
  • Removed and re-added the Planning Pod connection
  • Confirmed login works outside of Zapier

❓ Questions:

  • Has anyone successfully connected Planning Pod to Zapier recently?
  • Does Planning Pod require a specific login endpoint or environment for Zapier?
  • Could this be related to account permissions or API access settings?

At this point, it seems like either:

  • Zapier isn’t authenticating against the correct Planning Pod environment
    or
  • My Planning Pod account isn’t being recognized by the integration

Any guidance or insight would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you in advance.

Hi ​@SA_Opsteam 

Try reaching out to Planning Pod Support for help with their Zap app integration that Planning Pod created/manages.

Could be a bug of some sorts or could depend on your Planning Pod plan.
