My Gmail integration disconnects semi-frequenly, due to rate limiting – usually around every week or two it will fail and stop syncing. I’ve talked about this in the past in these forums, but I know it’s a very specific area that’s hard to diagnose. If I set the sync frequency to an hour, it stays …

The error message says that the rate-limit for Gmail was hit. But of course the syncing never retries, stays disabled. We have …

could u please share your workspace name?

could u try again please? reenable webhooks and configure hourly syncs.

If it’s still helpful, our workspace is “ripfish” Email syncing seems to working this morning, just had a successful one a few minutes ago. Were you bugfixing, or was there a change to the email sync flow that we need to know about? Thanks!
