How do I rename Jotform uploads in EasyFTP while preserving file extensions?

Hello Zapier Support Team,

I'm trying to upload files from a JotForm form to EasyFTP, while renaming the uploaded file based on one of the fields in the form. However, I want to retain the original file extension as it was uploaded in JotForm.

For example: if the user uploads an ID photo with the file name `image123.jpg`, I would like to rename it to include the ID number entered in the form, such as `123456789_id.jpg`, while keeping the original `.jpg` extension. This also applies to files with other extensions like `.png`.

Is there a way to set this up in Zapier? I would appreciate any guidance on how to configure it.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Hi @OneTwoThree 

For each file, use this Zap action: Formatter > Text > Split

Split at the period which will give you the filename and the file extension.

Then you can prepend/append whatever value you want to the filename as part of the Custom File Name field.
