Hi Troy

Thanks for your reply

here are some screenshots to help

How do i dynamically attach the file from the newly created Account Record in SalesForce?

​@Steve_King 

In Zap step 3, the Card field expects the ID of the Card from Zap step 2.

If the files are not returned from the DATA OUT of Zap step 1, then you would need to add more Zap steps for Salesforce to find those file records linked to the record in Zap step 1.

Try this Zap action: Salesforce - Get Record Attachments

Thanks Troy, just got around to testing this. It works if I do these actions;

1. When field is Updated in Record on Salesforce
2. Create Trello Card
3. Get Record Attachments
4. Add Attachments to Trello Card

The remaining problem is that the file attachment in SalesForce is a PDF, but when it is attached to the Card in Trello it doesn't have a file type extension. How do I get it to pick up the file type extension?

here are steps 3 and 4 as these are the components which relate to the attachment

Hi ​@Steve_King,

If Trello doesn't recognize the PDF file extension in your Zap, try manually adding ".pdf" in the "File Name" field during the "Add Attachments to Trello Card" step. Use the file name from the "Get Record Attachments" step and append ".pdf" to ensure Trello treats it as a PDF.

Please try this and let me know if it resolves your issue or if you need further assistance.
