Google Drive Copy Node - "Forbidden - perhaps check your credentials"

Questions

Describe the problem/error/question

I have an active workflow that copies a template into a specified folder, then pre fills that template in the next step. On the Google Drive node in which I am using the copy operation, sometimes it will just randomly error out saying “Forbidden - perhaps check your credentials”, with no other explanation. Has anyone else seen this behavior? If I were to rerun the workflow it would run fine until it randomly happens again. Any help would be appreciated.

Workflow:
(Disregard the undefined webhook values. Isolated the drive node for demonstration purposes)

What are some example data of successful and error executions? What is the difference between them?

Let’s see if the problem is in the data / setup of the node.
