Troubleshooting

Google Calendar troubleshooting
Symptom	What to check
`Connection is expired, revoked, or error`	Reconnect from Integrations and complete provider consent.
`Action cannot find a resource`	Grant the connected identity access and use the exact provider ID.
`Action input is rejected`	Match the action-specific fields and data types shown in the node.
`Test and live behavior differ`	Check provider environment, current permissions, external rate limits, and live data.

Limitations and security

A Calendar event does not automatically identify a Yanola contact or WhatsApp recipient.

Timezones must be explicit when mapping scheduled activity.

Protect the connection

Never place provider access tokens or secrets in workflow text, logs, screenshots, or AI prompts. Remove unused connections and reconnect only through Yanola.
