The Google Connection Stopped Working After About a Week

Symptom: DrezSync was connected and working, then after roughly seven days it shows Not connected and bookings stop syncing.

Cause

This is the most common connection issue, and it is a Google setting, not a DrezSync bug. If your Google Cloud app is still in Testing mode, Google expires the connection after seven days. Any app left in Testing has this limit.

Fix

  1. Open your project in the Google Cloud console and go to the OAuth consent screen, or Google Auth Platform, depending on the current Google layout.
  2. Publish the app so it moves out of Testing mode into production. The connection guide has the exact steps and screenshots.
  3. Return to Forms > Settings > DrezSync and reconnect once.

After the app is published, the connection stays live and will not expire on the seven-day timer.

Good to know

Publishing does not require Google’s full verification for this use, because the calendar permission is treated as a lighter, sensitive scope. You are simply moving the app out of the temporary Testing state. If you would rather not handle the Google setup yourself, our done-for-you connection service covers exactly this.
