Watch out for

Webhook payloads may contain HTML entities or special characters so sanitize all input fields before inserting them into the PDF template to prevent rendering errors.
Google Drive API quotas can be exceeded during bulk processing so add a small delay between upload requests if multiple forms are submitted simultaneously.
PDF generation services often fail silently on malformed JSON so implement explicit error handling in your code step to catch and log HTTP status codes greater than 400.
Email notifications might land in spam folders if the sender address lacks proper SPF/DKIM records so verify your Gmail service account authentication settings before going live.
