Trouble Connecting GPT to Zapier: Sign-In Button Unresponsive and Page Freezing Issue

I’m trying to experiment with the AI Actions and tried doing the steps based on the https://actions.zapier.com/ Start Here guidance.

 

For some reason my GPT is unable to establish connection with zapier. When I ask it to tell me what kind of task it can perform I get the following:

 

Zapier AI

Some info will be sent to actions.zapier.com, only do this for sites you trust

Sign in with actions.zapier.com

 

The sign in part looks like a button but it’s not clickable. There is nothing loading the page just freezes. 

 

If I open the small arrow at the end of the sentence I get:

Zapier AI needs to send this info to actions.zapier.com

{ "apps": "" }

 

Anyone run into this?

Anyone? The 'import from url’ in the Actions seems also to be broken

For me too. I had to manually open the JSON and copy paste it. -- I’m thinking the problem will lie there..

Thanks for the quick answer.  I have attempted with a different browser. Facing the same issue.

Let me know If you need any other screenshots to see my settings.

It seems to be an Internal Server Error 500 related to OAuth.

Hey!

I can confirm that it is now functioning properly for me! To resolve the issue, please log out and then log back into your OpenAI account. Afterward, proceed to run your assistant as usual. If it still appears as it did before, try clicking on the button or link again. This may prompt a new grant request, and once that's done, you should be good to go. The problem was related to a failure in the OAuth process, which resulted in the OpenAI API not responding to calls. 🚀

didnt work. tried incognito, other browser etc… impossible to make it work.

I think I have found the solution, but it’s something OpenAI may have to resolve, but still, I’d like for people to retest, here’s a briefly how I solved it: 

1. Yesterday we were joking with a friend that it was due to the cause of us being on a third world country, so we said let’s use a vpn
2. Lo and behold, i just used a vpn on the chatgpt I built with a zapier AI action before by manually importing the action and it let me sign in. 
3. While it didn’t move forward I regenerated my message to the bot and… (wait for it) it prompt me to allow or not allow or always allow, clicked allow, the action ran and now the bot works perfectly. 

Attachment of the oauth problem that always appeared before now was solved: 




Does anyone know where should we post this issue in openai so they work on it and fix it? (If there’s still openai this week xd)

Hi @Ironmole,

It seems like you've found a unique solution using a VPN with your ChatGPT implementation via Zapier. However, the details are a bit unclear. Could you offer more specific guidance on how to replicate your approach?

Also, for reporting this issue to OpenAI, they might be a bit too busy inventing the next big thing to notice a small glitch in the matrix! 😄

Thank you!

I could create a loom with the step-by-step so there’s no confusion. Let me know.

Ups, I didn’t mean to mark it as an answer. Great to know I’m not alone.

I seem to have a similar issue. My GPT always gets stuck on this status message:

 



It was working just fine earlier today.

Same problem here. Tried to logout and login again in OpenAI and Zapier.

What worked for me is to revoke the access if given to GPT on zapier. Then do the procedure from a mobile version of chat gpt. 

After the authentication is done (on mobile it works), you can go back to the web version.
Hope this helps
