Hi @ajsonnick
Good question.
Zoom likely provides a ZIP file to keep the recordings as small as possible, since those could be long based on the recording length.
Files larger than 100 MB may result in a time out error.
You can only add 1 file per field.
If you need to add additional files, you'll need to add separate action steps.

Thanks for that! I did a few tests. It seems to be if there are multiple files (like I start a meeting with myself AND do a screen share) then it zips them.
Is there any way to have them unzipped in that google drive folder? It really hinders our process.
@ajsonnick
You’d likely need to use a different app in the Zap that can unzip ZIP files.
Perhaps look into using ConvertAPI: https://www.convertapi.com/zip-to-extract
Thanks Troy!
So I’m trying to use that, I’m just very confused what I should be pulling.
I’m getting the “Error from halted execution: Error: "No supported files to extract from archive." error message.
I’m using the filename of the file being uploaded. I’ve also tried the ID, that didn’t work.
Any ideas?
@ajsonnick
This is for the ConvertAPI, not their Zap app integration.
Perhaps look into using ConvertAPI: https://www.convertapi.com/zip-to-extract
App APIs can be used in Zaps with the Webhooks app as an action step.

Thanks!!!!
That’s beyond me LOL. Any idea of where I can get help to just complete this last step so we can have this up and running?
Much appreciated.

@ajsonnick
The error seems to be because the file types (mp4, m4a) are NOT supported by ConvertAPI: https://www.convertapi.com/doc/file-formats
I was able to extract the sample files (different formats) from a ZIP using the native ConvertAPI - Convert File action.
That means a different app would have to be used that supports audio/video files, plus you may encounter an issue where the video file is too large.
Thanks @Troy Tessalone ! I tried those but I think the issue is that in Step 3 my “upload to Drive” because it’s multiple files, it’s zipping it, and I need a way to tell Zapier that the file has been zipped, otherwise it doesn’t know what to convert.
Is there a way of telling it to look for something in the folder?
I reached out to a few experts to hire them :)
@ajsonnick
When I tested previously with ConvertAPI, this is how I mapped the ZIP file from the GDrive step.

Thank you! I tried that but it doesn’t seem to be seeing that it had uploaded a zipped folder. I tried ZIP Archive too.
I really appreciate your help so much!!!
@ajsonnick
Every app is a bit different, so sometimes it’s a matter of trial and error to find the correct app and getting it configured to work.
