Describe the problem/error/question

I am encountering an issue with the Google Sheets Trigger node within my workflow. It appears to be retriggering multiple times, despite no new rows being added to the associated Google Sheet. This behavior is causing repeated executions and ultimately results in an error.

What is the error message (if any)?

The service was not able to process your request
Internal error encountered.

The Google Sheets trigger polls periodically. If you check your Google Developer API dashboard, you'll observe that it polls every minute in your specific setup.

Google's API endpoints may occasionally fail or impose rate limits, which is considered normal behavior.

Yes, it appears you're calling it too frequently. Reducing the call rate should help. Otherwise, as mentioned, you might be hitting rate limits, which would explain the error you're encountering.
