Saving multiple attachments from Gmail to G-Drive using Zapier
Hello!
I’m new to Zapier, and could use some assistance. I’m trying to set up a Zap where any time an email with attachments comes in to Gmail, the attachments are saved in G-drive. I have this working for 1 attachment, but there ar eother use cases I need to set this up for.
multiple attachments on 1 email (e.g. 2 pdfs attached to 1 email). I’d need them both to pull into g-drive with their respective file names.
attachments that were forwarded to the email group. E.g. Someone received an email with an attachment- they then forward that email (with the attachment) to an email group. I need that attachment from the forwarded email to show in the g-drive.
Any assistance would be helpful!
Best,
Joe

Hi @jp3tmi
Use this Zap trigger: Gmail - New Attachment
Hey @Troy Tessalone
Yes- I am using that trigger, though when I run tests with mulitple attachments, I’m only getting 1 attachment that pulls through. Below is my “upload file” portion of the workflow.
I’m still only receiving 1 attachment in my drive when i send multipe attachments in tests.

Zap triggers once per email attachment.
So if you have 3 attachments on an email, that will result in 3 Zap Runs.
Try turning your Zap ON and testing live, then review the Zap Run history to see the DATA IN/OUT for each step: https://zapier.com/app/history/
When manually testing a Zap step, that depends on the selected record in the Zap trigger step.
Got it- that seems to be working. Last little bug here:
For each each doc that comes in, Zapier appears to be concatenating/conjoining the names of the documents together. So each separate doc is named with both of the document names.
Is there an edit i can make so that each document has it’s own name?
Really appreciate the assistance!

You need to use the SINGULAR version of variables for Attachment, not Attachments.
