ProCore Photos come into Box with a .txt added on the end of the file changing it from a picture.

The trigger is New Photo in ProCore.  The problem is the Box Action side.  It doesn’t seem to accommodate copying pictures and adds a .txt to the end of each picture it does bring over.  Any help would be appreciated.

Hi @jsheard 

Check out this help article for dealing with files in Zap steps: https://zapier.com/help/create/basics/send-files-in-zaps

In your Zap Box action step, are you linking to a file URL or a file object?

If you’re linking to a file URL, make sure the file URL is publicly accessible.

You can test this by trying to open the file URL in a private browser to see if it renders.

Hi @jsheard 

Would you mind sharing screenshots of how your zap is currently set up?
