IFTTT not connecting to Glitch

[dazazbab]

I've been using GoogleHomeKodi for a few months. No Issues until a couple days ago. Now IFTTT keep giving the error "Applet Skipped. Unable to make web request. Your server returned a 403" for any command. I didn't change anything in the IFTTT setup. Google assistant responded but no actions happened in Kodi.

Glitch log doesn't even register that IFTTT trying to connect. I tried running some command from Glitch itself and it's running fine.

Any ideas what could cause this? It seems like a IFTTT/Webhook issue but I was wondering if anybody have seen this before.

Came to say the same thing, happening here as well.

Works fine through Glitch. Thanks for the amazing application, I use it daily!

Edit: If its related, my uptime robot has been unable to ping my Glitch server for a while:

Previous downtime was due to my Glitch server being disabled. Re-enabled a day before this downtime.

Exactly the same issue here for a few days now. Test command works but nothing else

Loving the app, but having the same issue. It started about 2 days ago.

Get this in log when try to update from GitHub on glitch

“Could not find node ^13.9.0, using 10
1:06 AM
node v10.15.3, with pnpm”

If that helps any

Looks like glitch banned multiple "pingers" like IFTTT.
No idea if and when glitch will allow IFTTT again. (see https://support.glitch.com/t/ifttt-keeps-getiingt-403/)

Consider switching to another hosting option.

Its a known problem, because of a Glitch outage. More information can be found here:

They have stated that this will be temporary

I can offer to share my personal instance hosted on google cloud run with you guys. If you guys are willing to trust me with your kodi-credentials of course (Hostname, Port, User and Password).
If interested just send me your details to <my nickname here at github>@gmail.com

This is not really intentional from Glitch, be more of an unintended side-effect of the ping service block. I'm really sorry this had to happen.

I suppose this would be the other option:

Would paying for the Glitch premium fix this? I can't really tell if the response linked from the message above, about keeping apps awake would fix it. We only use it for Kodi but it is sorely missed now that it isn't working.

Thought I had lost my mind when I couldn't ping my server.

Is there an alternative to glitch, with GitHub import?

[RonnieBoy82]

See on glitch support the ping block is permenent now. Am only able to use the glitch option for now and don't know about coding. Is there an alternative that is as easy to set up as glitch?

I would like too know as well.

I went ahead and paid for Glitch on a monthly basis and Kodi is working fine again and faster than it ever was before. But I am also interested in an easy to install alternative. I looked at the Google Cloud option and was thoroughly confused. If someone could put together a tutorial, that would be helpful.
