Installed onEdit trigger stopped firing
G Suite support directed me to stack to "post a query to the help support line of [their] Apps Script team!" I had no idea... :)
I have a custom script bound to a particular google sheet that I've set to run with an installed onEdit trigger which I installed using the script editor. The trigger has fired for a long time without any issues. Today out of the blue it stopped working. I've tried deleting and reinstalling the trigger to no avail.
Before you ask...yes the code works. It's not that it's running and erroring out (I have the script wrapped in a try...catch with no errors), additionally, an identical script runs just fine on a different sheet owned by the same user. On that other sheet, the installed trigger has no issues.
The issue is simply this trigger does not fire. No logs, no execution transcript, nothing!
Any thoughts? I've considered Trigger Total Runtime quota, but that quota is 6hr/day. I'm nowhere near this. I know because I looked through the log of my executions today (installed triggers run as the owner of the sheet).

Do you have any other functions in the project with the same name?

The question is too broad as it doesn't include enough details of the context your Google Apps Script project. How many file does it include? How many functions? Do you already tried to debug your function? Have you tried to create a Minimal, Complete, and Verifiable example?

@Cooper, no I don't have any other functions with the same name, but good thought. Although if I did one of them would be executed and I would see something in my execution transcript.

@Rubén, thanks for the feedback, but did you even read the post. The "context" of my App Script project is irrelevant because this issue is only happening on this one sheet. There is another identical (from a google app script perspective) but separate sheet that has no issues with the installed trigger. One file (mentioned in the post). Lots of functions, but that has nothing to do with the issue...the trigger is not firing. Nothing to debug since the installed trigger won't fire. Your last point is a good one. I did create a copy and had the same issue. Maybe this is a google issue.

Update...turns out the issue was Google's because the trigger is working fine today. Strange...
