Retrieve URL of a Sharepoint List attachment

Hi ​@rethink 

The SharePoint Zap trigger event would need to include info about the file for you to use.

• file object
• file url
• file ID
• file name

Try using this Zap action: SharePoint - Find File

Description: Finds a file and its contents based on its name and Folder Path

Otherwise, you may have to explore using the SharePoint API.

Zap action: SharePoint - API Request

Hi there ​@rethink! 👋

Did you have any luck with either of the Microsoft SharePoint actions Troy suggested? 

We’re happy to assist further if you’re still stuck at all, just let us know! 🙂

No luck as of yet,

The find file seems to be more for the files and folders that had been 

The triggering actions that kick off my Zap are when a new Sharepoint list item is created or modified. I can check to see if there is an attachment (Boolean yes/no), but I cant seem to find the URL in Zapier. 

In Power Automate I am able to create something similar and then add the URL to the list item, which helps by allowing the person to see ‘Oh, there is an attachment, and here is a link to the item in Sharepoint” so its one click. not as ideal as a link to the attachment directly, but at least closer. 

When I look for the same in Zapier, I cant seem to find it. 

Hi ​@rethink,

Zapier's SharePoint integration can trigger new or updated list items and detect if attachments exist but doesn't provide direct attachment URLs in the data. To get around this, you can use a custom Webhook step to call the SharePoint API and fetch attachment URLs, create a SharePoint flow to add attachment links to a list field for Zapier to read, or explore third-party tools that expose these URLs.
