My Google Sheets Apps is blocked, [429] error

Google Sheets Apps was blocked and every Make scene I tried started showing the [429] error message. Here is what “RateLimitError” looks like:

RateLimitError

About this page

Our systems have detected unusual traffic from your computer network. This page checks to see if it's really you sending the requests, and not a robot. Why did this happen?

This page appears when Google automatically detects requests coming from your computer network which appear to be in violation of the Terms of Service. The block will expire shortly after those requests stop. In the meantime, solving the above CAPTCHA will let you continue to use our services.

This traffic may have been sent by malicious software, a browser plug-in, or a script that sends automated requests. If you share your network connection, ask your administrator for help — a different computer using the same IP address may be responsible. Learn more

Sometimes you may be asked to solve the CAPTCHA if you are using advanced terms that robots are known to use, or sending requests very quickly.

I have this problem too! same error all over the place, on multiple sheets. Make-Automation needs to be available for automations :sweat_smile: This is killing my flows. Anyone know a fix?

Also been hit with the same error, had a dozen in the last few minutes fail. The Google Sheet limit is 300 per minute, I’ve not hit anywhere near that.

Had this error for attempts for the last hour, and there were only 50.

We have the same error… Anyone found a fix yet?

same here .. help! :cry:

The same thing happens on our side, it seems that when you “Run Oncce” it works but as soon as you put it back on “On” it jumps…

I think it’s a new bug, or maybe google is implementing a new security process
because I’ve been using this for years

What’s the next step ?

1 out of 10 times it works

Same here! Looks like Google might’ve added some kind of new security check — when looking into the error, it seems to be asking for a CAPTCHA. Hope there’s a workaround soon!

I thought I was the only one, and yes—I can confirm this is happening in my google connection too, so frustrating, especially when handling tons of clients.

Same here !! need to figure out a solution …

Seems google doesn’t like us circumventing their removal of the make.com app by using scripts.. everything just went into a grinding halt.

I’m experiencing the same issue as well. Even reconfiguring the Google Cloud authentication didn’t help.

I hope the issue gets resolved soon.

Same issue here… commenting to be stayed in the loop if this is fixed.

Same error, how to solve it ? please

same issue here, since half an hour ago

Same here too, with just one sheet so far, Is this going to spread to all my other scenarios too? Hope its just a very temporary bug

Same here…
Google Sheets aren’t working. We are far away from rate limits
