I have a Jotform which is liked to Zapier, allowing me to transfer the responses into SeaTable. There is a second Zap that takes a PDF generated by Jotform and adds it to a file column in SeaTable.
I have a manual tick box that when checked sends and email, with that PDF as an attachment.
What I expect to happen:
I receive an email with that attachment
What actually happens:
I receive an email without an attachment
What i have noticed is that it seems to be specifically related to uploading attachments with Zapier - If i manually upload the attachment and tick the box, I do get an email with the PDF
Hi @Jaffa, can you actually access the pdfs uploaded by Zapier ? I mean, from the SeaTable web interface, if you click on a file, are you able to access/download it ?
Another question: do you always manually check the column to send the email? Or is this action sometimes automated? I’m asking you because I remember (but couldn’t find the reference unfortunately) I’ve had such a problem in the past with an automated action: as far as I remember, the URL’s structure changed shortly after the file had been uploaded, and I had to wait for the second URL structure to be able to interact with the file…
Yupp, I can click on the file and view it in the browser or download it. Thats actually how I discovered that it was specifically the Zapier linking - If I download the PDF and reupload it works fine.
The checkbox is usually automated, but during the testing ive been manually checking it so I could see if it was relating to time (I know in Airtable you have to wait about 5 seconds for the attachment to process before using automations)
Do it like thousands of other people who have used SeaTable to develop powerful processes and get their ideas and tasks done more efficiently.
