I’ve originally reported the problem about 3 weeks ago but I was told the thread was marked resolved by mistake and that’s why it wasn’t responded to for the last 2 weeks now. At least other 2 people reported the same issue in the thread and Jon mentioned it on Discord that might be a known bug. Can someone please confirm if it was being worked on and if there was any workaround or more detail about what is causing this or if the Gmail trigger isn’t GA or otherwise fully supported?

Thanks,  
Peter

Hey @petholla

This is indeed a known bug with a GitHub issue opened for it as well, I will link this up with the internal ticket so we can let you know when it is resolved.

Hey @petholla

Sorry I thought I also shared the link on Discord for this one, the GitHub issue for this can be found here: [There was a problem activating the workflow: "Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'internalDate')" · Issue #11895 · n8n-io/n8n · GitHub](https://github.com/n8n-io/n8n/issues/11895)

Oddly I had expected it to be fixed by now but I think we have been having a hard time to properly reproduce it. I will check the internal status in the morning.
