I am pulling data from a Google Sheet to send to Buffer (Linkedin Posts).
Each google sheet line is a text + 3 images (google drive URL such as this one
https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1-oXKgO6KvrKiu4Npkfb6ErWUa8RzYOfw).
Text + 1 image works great and Buffer schedule the post.
But if I choose “Mulitple images” I get an error:
Failed to create an update in Buffer
Error from halted execution: The selected file (#1) cannot be reached by us - you need to provide a direct link to the file. See https://buff.ly/4eqKvLD
I even tried 3 time the same image that work when I use Single image. I get the same error.

Hi
Welcome to the Community.
To successfully post multiple images to Buffer from Google Sheets using Zapier, ensure all image links are direct and publicly accessible without requiring additional permissions. Verify that Google Drive permissions are set to "Anyone with the link can view" and maintain consistent formatting. Properly map the multiple image field in Zapier, following Buffer's delimiter requirements. Lastly, confirm that your Buffer plan supports various images. If issues persist, Buffer's support team may offer additional guidance.
I hope this helps resolve the issue. If you have any more questions or need further clarification, feel free to ask.
