+3I have over 30 Google Forms to Airtable automations setup which have been running very smoothly until this week when suddenly none of them are running anymore. I’ve tried resetting the connection but none of them want to trigger when a new form is completed. They only seem to work when I “run as configured” but that’s not really automated.
+28Hey
I didn’t triple check, but many services are down on my side (AWS issue). Is this super recent or has this been happening for a couple of days now? If the issue persists you might want to reach out to support@airtable.com

+28Hmmm. I don’t see any issue on Google’s services (see status page here) nor on Airtable’s side (see status page here). However I am having issues with other services.
I’d suggest keeping an eye out, and reach out to support as mentioned if the issue persists.
Just to confirm, you are receiving google forms submissions, right?

+28Oh, ok that is strange! Keep us posted :D
+35It might be related to the Cloudflare global outage that has been happening for the last 4 hours.
Yet even if it really is related to the outage, it shows how fragile this setup is, because the automation won’t pickup where it left off to grab the old form submissions that were trying to come in during the outage.
So it’s usually better to do this sort of an automation through Make’s Google Forms integrations and Make’s Airtable integrations, because Make is a professional automation platform that will always pickup where it last left off, so you won’t miss any form submissions in case of an outage or other problem.
Even better, you may want to switch to Fillout’s advanced forms for Airtable, because It is 100% free, it offers quizzes, and communicates directly with Airtable. It also offers hundreds of features that you can’t get with Airtable’s forms or Google Forms, such as the ability to update Airtable records with a form,
