When I use Find File task for Drop Box, it keeps failing to find the file, and gives the error
Failed to find a file in Dropbox
Okay - So I can see the exact file names in my dropbox.
e.g. “Mifsud Pluto-DX-25/1/2023-Report.pdf”
And I have Airtable fields that give me contents like: “Mifsud Pluto”, “DX”, and “25/1/2023”
So I build the file name search action using these fields and add the “-” or “-Report.pdf” as text in between the spaces as needed.
Then as I test this task, I can see what it’s going to start looking for:
And that matches exactly what the file name is. I even tested to see if Airtable thought both strings were the same.
Mifsud Pluto-DX-25/1/2023-Report.pdf
But I still get the zap error saying Zapier failed to find that file.
I also have re-connected my Dropbox in my Manage Apps section and it still happens.
Why can’t zapier find the file that exists in my dropbox even though I spell it out for it perfectly????
The only thing I can think of is that zapier doesn’t like the space, but I also tried it with a patient name that doesn’t have a space. Same error.
