I’ve been running a Google Calendar (new event added) → Slack app for more than 6 months with no issues. A couple of days the app stopped running after several failed attempts. This is the first time this error has popped up. Could it be the way it was typed into the calendar it can’t parse the text?
The error:
Function 'getBlocksData' finished with error! JSON for blocks is invalid.
