Google Drive Trigger Issue: File Uploaded Not Working

RE: Lindy trigger not working -- I'm experiencing the same problem with the File Uploaded Google Drive Trigger. I can't provide a task URL because the agent isn't able to generate one.

Seems to be related to Google then? I’m teaching a class in 50min to practice building lindies and they all use google drive and docs triggers 😵‍💫 🫠

Thanks, Alan - I apprecite the nudge. Do you know if this issue is on the Lindy side or with the G-drive API?

Alon J., fyi - the meeting recorder agent and the associated .mp4 uploads correction to my drive, however, the transcription of the audio file doesn't work and/or trigger appropriately. Not sure if this helps in your troubleshooting, but sharing for awareness

I just finished the class and for some of the students the google drive trigger worked but for the majority it didn't

Alon J., the G-drive trigger works now. Although, one nuance I realized is that it takes much longer for the trigger to activate, as long as 15 minutes before the workflow kicks off. Whereas in the past the trigger would immediately be activated.

Thanks Peter -- I'll connect with my engineering team as to why that is 🙏 Wiebke U. - Are you able to let me know if it works for you, as well?
