Question

Attach file in Gmail when file is uploaded to Drive

Hi!

I’m trying to set a Zap, where a new file is added to a Google Drive folder, and this same file is sent by email as an attachment, 

I’ve followed this guide, but when setting the action, I cannot call the file stated in the Trigger.

What can I be missing?

Thanks!

Your zap should be configured as follows:

Trigger: New File in folder in Google Drive
Action: Send Email in Gmail 

You would pass the file object from step 1 into step 2. You should see either export links or a file from the trigger step
