Hey all,

i made an action with the google calendar add event function.  
It worked… but now 3 days later it shows a failure and I dont understand why.

Is it a general failure with the plugin?

Can you try adding a Wait action to your custom action? Give it a few seconds for the row to add before sending the request to google calendar.

This was the first thing I have tried… does not work. (i tried 3 seconds)  
BUT you also have to know, that it worked well after setup… and now, 3 days later it does not work anymore.
