Troubleshooting: Gmail PDF attachment --> save into GDrive folder

Pierre from Neworkflow.co

Hi there :) 

I hope someone could help me on this issue.

I tried to setup a Zap that saves the PDF attachment of emails with the label “invoice” in my gmail into a specific GDrive folder. 

Issue: What it does instead is creating a new Google doc file in GDrive with the content of the PDF file? 

What am I doing wrong? 

Thank you for your help

Pierre

I was able to fix it :grinning:

I checked again and noticed that I missed a setting called "Conver to document". I changed this to "false" and now it actually seems to upload the PDF file into the Gdrive folder :)
