I need help with "BuildShip Trigger & Execute Workflow Nodes" - (Not working)

I am trying to use the BuildShip Trigger & Execute Workflow Nodes to create and update Firestore documents, but they're not responsive for some reason. I keep getting the error message: { "success": false, "error": { "name": "SyntaxError" } } I have read through your documentation over and over again, but I still can't identify where the problem is coming from. Could someone please take a look at my workflow screenshots to see what the problem is? @Shams @Bhavya @Gaurav Chadha @martiserra @Stu @Sandrina @vaibhav @Deepanshu @DanS

Solution:
One quick thing to check... you must ship the workflow you're trying to trigger (the one with the BuildShip Trigger) before you test it out with the Execute Workflow node.

Hey @Ugo101, I see you've added the Workflow ID as an object in your Execute Workflow node when it should be a string. So, if you replace the:
{
"workflowId": "B3F713ZavMEC1D8eNaJF"
}
{
"workflowId": "B3F713ZavMEC1D8eNaJF"
}
with simply B3F713ZavMEC1D8eNaJF, it should work. You can also refer the screenshots in the documentation here. Hope this helps. If the issue still persists, we'd recommend you to send an in-app support request so that we can help you debug it.

Hi @Bhavya thanks for the reply. I tried both methods simple text and object and none worked. You can see i added screenshots for both in the post. I tried both methods but none worked. I will send an in-app request as you suggested as well.
