Why do files created with the Google Drive plugin always have a *.txt

I am trying to create a file for every new thing I save to pocket. It is supposed to be a markdown file (title.md) but when I run it, the file always ends up with an extra .txt, so it is then `title.md.txt` which is not really what I wanted.

Hi @ct2034 

Please post screenshots with how your Zap steps are configured.

FYI: Providing the Zap Share link doesn’t allow us to see how your Zap steps are configured.

Thanks for the clarification. Maybe this helps:

I believe the GDrive action for Create File from Text will either create a .txt file or an editable GDoc file.

I don’t think you can specify a different file type in the File Name field.
