Hi there, Im trying to figure out an issue where my lookup row (google sheets) column is returning "Error". I cant seem to figure out why since there's no additional details about the error. I am experiencing it in the firsr "Lookup row" column in this table: https://app.clay.com/workspaces/206246/workbooks/wb_xkV9QFwsBbFF/tables/t_d54fmRnD9u4q/views/gv_EQKRgZUcuV3F

The "Error" in your Google Sheets lookup row column could be due to rate limiting. Google Sheets has a default limit of 300 read requests per minute per project. If you exceed this, Google temporarily blocks further requests. To resolve this: 1. Wait a minute and try again, as the quota resets every minute. 2. Reduce the frequency of lookups if possible. 3. Ensure your Google Sheets URL, Sheet ID, Lookup Column, and Lookup Value are correctly configured. If the issue persists, you may need to review your integration setup or request human assistance for more specific troubleshooting.
