I am collecting some data and a file using typeform.

Trigger: When user submits the typeform.

Action:

  1. I want to upload the file from typeform to sharepoint.
  2. Create a JIRA ticket
  3. Upload the file from sharepoint to JIRA ticket as an attachment.

I am having issue in attaching the file from sharepoint to JIRA ticket. I cant find any option to attach the file, although I am able to do it successfully if using oneDrive rather than Sharpoint as OneDrive have an attribute called file but I cant find any attribute containing file content on Sharepoint.

 

Any help will be appreciated.

To help us have more context, post screenshots with how your Zap steps are outlined and configured.


Hi @Troy Tessalone 

 

Thanks for your reply.

Here are the screenshots.

Under the attachment there is no option to attach file from Sharepoint.

 

The issue is in Step-4 where I am trying to add the attachment from Sharepoint to the JIRA ticket.

 

 


@Markus Dittli 

If the same file is being uploaded from Typeform to SharePoint and Jira, then try using this field, which is a file object, in both steps.

 


@Troy Tessalone 

 

I did the same but the problem is in JIRA ticket the attachment does not contain the actual content rather contains a link of Zapier which when copy pasted on the browser, I can see the actual file content.

 

Sample link contained in the attachment

The Attachment field accepts files.

The Attachment field should accept a valid file object or a publicly available direct download link file url.

 

This is a file object, which is a temp file that expires after some time.

 


@Troy Tessalone

I am already using the file object but it ends up creating an attachment that contains the download link from Zapier and not the actual file.

What is the way to upload a file from Sharepoint?

In my workflow I uploaded the file on Sharepoint, now I want to upload that file from Sharepoint to JIRA

File objects are temp files in Zaps that expire.

Make sure to retest previous steps to get fresh data.

 

Concept would be the same to map a file object or a file url from SharePoint (if returned) to Jira.
