This should be a simple flow: read gmail for emails from a specific sender, read 3 specific parts that are the same in every email from the sender and then copy 2 1 sentence answer from the email into a google sheet.

The gmail reader is the first step and it fails. I see no inputs or outputs. I authenticated and re-authorized the gmail login multiple times

Hi Wasay. I’ve been asking the ai genie to help and have implemented the recommendations but keep receiving a google reader error. Here is the latest link from the last run - [https://www.gumloop.com/pipeline?workbook\_id=pyxGCfoUeFQPHDXD7eUswr](https://www.gumloop.com/pipeline?workbook_id=pyxGCfoUeFQPHDXD7eUswr)

Hi Wasay,

Here is the last run - I have done about 30-40 runs. Keep failing. [https://www.gumloop.com/pipeline?workbook\_id=pyxGCfoUeFQPHDXD7eUswr&run\_id=YMveTLxRT2e5KSTGyNmbPD](https://www.gumloop.com/pipeline?workbook_id=pyxGCfoUeFQPHDXD7eUswr&run_id=YMveTLxRT2e5KSTGyNmbPD)

Thank you @John – Made a quick Loom video to go over this: [New Node Update Explained! | Loom](https://www.loom.com/share/99150d4c88c94ede9292a10b37c43bb7?sid=0f7695da-87cd-419a-b9b0-712596d63f38)

Let me know if this makes sense and works for you 🙂

Hi Wasay. I understand what you are saying but I do not understand how to make it work in my instance. Can you jump on a zoom call for 10 minutes. I am sure this is a basic, simple thing.
