Can you post an example link you are trying to upload?
Not just the File Name field.
Yes this link refer to the direct file with the right extension
Hi there @AhmedAlnaqa!
The file link needs to be publicly accessible - meaning that whoever clicks on the link can access the file without needing to log into a Google account that has permission to access the file.
When I clicked on the link you referenced previously I saw a “You need access” message:
So it appears that you’d need to change the permissions for the file in order for WordPress to be able to access the file. You can find out more about what’s needed in order to send files between different apps here: Send files in Zaps
Can you try updating the permissions for the file on Google Drive so that anyone who has the link would be able to access it? Then test the Wordpress action again to see if it’s then able to upload the file successfully.
Looking forward to hearing how that goes!
Thanks SamB,
I will try and check ..
but do u recommend and zap that support:
a form to entry data and image and send to WordPress as a target
instead of google forms.
Thanks for getting back to me, @AhmedAlnaqa. Hopefully updating the file access permissions will resolve things.
I can’t really recommend which app would be best for you to use but there are a number of other form apps available that could potentially be used to transfer a file and form data to WordPress. You can view the full list of form apps available on Zapier here: https://zapier.com/apps/categories/forms
Hope that helps. Please do keep us updated on how you get on!
