Automation bot not triggering for Google Form rows & evaluating conditions incorrectly

Hello, I have built an automation bot for round-robin lead assignment, but it is not working correctly. I have already performed extensive troubleshooting and have isolated a very unusual problem.

Goal: Assign leads from a Google Form to salespeople based on their market ("South Korea" or "Outside South Korea").

Problem:

  1. The bot works perfectly when a lead is added directly in the AppSheet app.

  2. The bot does not trigger for new rows created by a connected Google Form, even after a manual sync.

  3. A new problem has started: the bot is now assigning "South Korea" leads to the wrong sales team, meaning the IF [Country] = "South Korea" condition is failing.

Troubleshooting Steps Already Taken:

  • Confirmed the bot is enabled and the app is fully deployed.

  • Used the "Test" feature, which shows the trigger condition evaluates to TRUE for the rows that fail to trigger the bot.

  • Corrected all column types (Ref for the salesperson) and ensured formulas return the Key value.

  • Confirmed that editing and re-saving a row from Google Form inside AppSheet still does not trigger the bot.

  • Switched the trigger formula from a series of ORs to the IN(..., LIST(...)) function.

Is Google Forms the data source?
