How to forward an email with attachments using Zapier?


Dear all,

I am new to Zapier community and would like to ask how can I forward an email with the original attachments using Zapier?

 

I tried to set the trigger as ‘matching an email’, and set the action as ‘sending email’, but didn’t succeed in attaching the files - e.g. the forwarded email only shows the attachment file with a download link instead of showing in attachement.

 

Many many thanks in advance for your help!

If you own the Gmail email account that you want to forward the emails to, then you should not need to use Zapier, and should be able to use Gmail Rules: https://support.google.com/mail/answer/6579?hl=en#zippy=%2Ccreate-a-filter

Hi @hfgo 

Can you please describe your use case more?

If you’re using Gmail, try using Rules: https://support.google.com/mail/answer/6579?hl=en

Hey Troy,

Thanks a lot for the replying!

Please allow me to explain it with an example:

 

Gmail A: received an email with subject ‘XXX’ and attachments of five csv files;

What I want to achieve is: using Zapier to automatically forward this email (as well as all the attachments with it) to Gmail B

 

Many thanks!!!!
