A

I have one excel file which will automatically updates when i get new lead from facebook lead ads. I want to attach this excel file in my gmail attachment. When i try to attach it only gives me the values that the excel file does have. But i want this to attach as file. So that mail receiver can able to receive this as a file. 

 

Can you please help me with this issue.

Hey @Amrish! If this needs to be sent as a URL, you can simply past the URL into the body of the email within your action template. Otherwise, I am guessing you are wanting the file object to attach to the email. In that case, you’d likely want to follow the advice/answer from this post:

Hi @Amrish 

Good question.

Help article about using files in Zaps: https://zapier.com/help/create/basics/send-files-in-zaps

 

If you’re using Microsoft, then use this Zap action to get the file: OneDrive - Find File

 

If you’re using Google, then use this Zap action to get the file: GDrive - Find File

Hi @Amrish!

Just checking in here, do you still need some help with this? If so, would you be able to share more details about your Zap? Is the file stored in Microsoft OneDrive or in Google Drive? Thanks!
