Hello, 

I created an automation using the Google Doc "Create Document from Template". Everything works correctly, a document is generated from the template for each Zap.

I would then like to send the link to this document by email. However, I do not know which item to choose in the "Insert data Attachments" list.

 


Can you help me please?

Thank you!

Hi @jeanf92 

Help link about using files in Zaps: https://help.zapier.com/hc/en-us/articles/8496288813453-Send-files-in-Zaps

The variable needs to be a file object (e.g. variable value says “File exists but not shown”) or a publicly accessible direct download link.
