So I have several zaps set up to pull posts from multiple Facebook pages that I run and post about them in dedicated channels for each page on my Discord. Everything works fine when there’s a single image in the post - it shows my note about a new post to the page, includes the message text from the post, and has the image from the post. 

But if the post includes multiple images, it doesn’t work right. It’ll still have the “new post to ‘Page A’” and the post’s message, but where the images should be I just get lImage]()

This is how I have the Discord side of things set up in the Zap. I’d get it if it showed just the first image, but I’m last as to why NONE of the images show when there’s more than one.

 

Hi there ​@CoreyB,

Welcome to the Community! 🎉

At the moment, you cannot upload an image directly to a message using the "Send Channel Message in Discord" action in Zapier. You can only embed an image in a message. However, we do have a feature request in place to enable the option to attach images to a message.

I have added you to the feature request. That does a few things:

  • Bring this to the attention of the integration developers
  • Help track interest in this feature being implemented
  • Allows us to notify you via email if this feature becomes available in the future

While I don't have an ETA on when this feature might be implemented, we will notify you via email if it is!

In the meantime, you can stay in the loop/follow along with updates on the main thread here: 

Hopefully, this helps.

 

For anyone that comes across this and wants to be added please reach out on the main topic for this issue here and we’ll get you added to the feature request.

But, I’m not trying to upload the images to Discord. I’m trying to embed multiple images that are part of the Facebook post and which are on Facebook’s servers. A post with a single embedded image works perfectly; this only happens when the Facebook post has more than one image.

Hi ​@CoreyB,

Thanks for getting back to me!

If there’s multiple images in the Facebook post, I believe we’ll need to use Formatter by Zapier - Split Text function to split the image URL and pass them correctly to Discord. You can learn more about the Split Text function here: https://help.zapier.com/hc/en-us/articles/25380258676109-Use-Formatter-to-split-text-in-Zaps

Kindly give it a try and let me know how it goes? I'll keep an eye out for your response!

I read that article, and I couldn’t make heads or tails of it. It may as well have been written in Farsi for all the sense it made to me. I don’t get what I’m supposed to be splitting or how when I look at a sample post that I made with two pics, as there’s only one Full Picture field showing as an option with only one link to one of the images.

Hey ​@ken.a,

I have a similar problem. 
What I’m trying to update my portfolio page from a facebook post. 
 

Imagine I post 6 images and text to a facebook post. How can I retrieve urls to those images?

Facebook Pages trigger gives you access to 1 attachment only (see the screenshot) 

I would like to get an access to all attachments.

That’s exactly what I’m experiencing. Even using a Facebook post that definitely has at least two images in it, the zap is only returning a single image URL. 

Though I would think that the subsequent Discord post would at least include the first image, but it doesn’t.
