Files by Zapier showing only 10 rows

Hi everyone, I had a zap that utilized files by zapier. My csvs are all under 1mb and when I test my zap, I am only getting 10 rows returned. I need the entire file to be uploaded. Please advise.

Return a File object

I’m trying to return a file that can be used by other actions.This code converts the base-64 string that’s returned by an API into a File:const xml = require('pixl-xml');const perform = async (z, bundle) => { const xml = 'XML HERE' var body = xml.stringify( 'Document', xml ); const options = { url: 'https://www.domain.tld/get_file', method: 'POST', headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/xml', }, body: body }; return z.request(options).then((response) => { response.throwForStatus(); response.data = xml.parse(response.content); if ( response.data.FILE ) { const buffer = Buffer.from(response.data.FILE`; const file = new File(buffer,'somefile.pdf', { type: 'application/octet-stream' }); return { file: file } } });};Unit and integration tests work as expected, but I get an error when I try to use this in a Zap:File is not defined What happened (You are seeing this because you are an admin): Starting POST request to http

"File Object" output, need a how-to

I am researching for a way to export a file from our application into another app like Google Drive. However I’m running into some difficulty hydrating the file or making it a file object as described in https://help.zapier.com/hc/en-us/articles/8496259603341#file-fields-0-4. In my action step using the code below I’m taking a encoded file from our database and doing a base64 decode to get the file name, file type, the buffer stream, and buffer stream length.const encodedFile = bundle.inputData.file;const decodedFile = Buffer.from(encodedFile, 'base64').toString('utf-8'); var fileByte = Buffer.from(decodedFile.substring(decodedFile.indexOf('<File>')+6,decodedFile.indexOf('</File>')), 'base64').toString('utf-8'); var filetype =Buffer.from(decodedFile.substring(decodedFile.indexOf('<FileType>')+10,decodedFile.indexOf('</FileType>')), 'base64').toString('utf-8'); var filename = Buffer.from(decodedFile.substring(decodedFile.indexOf('<UploadedFileName>')
