Question

Cannot upload files

N

Hi!

I have created a new integration with my API in Zapier. The problem is when I need to upload a file in my API. First of all I catch the file in Google Drive and fill my text field with the data provided for Drive. But muy API throw an error, because the form data in zapier didn’t send the file. I have tried out to set Content-type in multipart/form-data and didn’t run.

Hi @Nasiu 

Good question.

Please post screenshots with how your Zap steps are configured in order for us to have more context, thanks.

Hi @Nasiu ,

We don’t support files in Visual Builder, or Platform UI apps (see here and here). You’ll need to convert to CLI in order to get that to work.

Let us know if you need anything else!
