Error Message when sending gmail with attachment from Google Drive Upload

Hello,

After the last update to Google Drive I am getting "Failed to create a send email in Gmail - not enough values to unpack (expected 2, got 1)" error while I was trying to send an e-mail with my attached pdf file from the earlier ‘Upload File in Google Drive’ step.

This process was working just fine with the earlier version (legacy) of Google Drive, it started to give this error while sending e-mail after update.

Does anyone have any idea how to resolve this issue?

Hi @Troy Tessalone 

Thank you for your response.

Here are my steps and the error I get.

 

It seems there are no problems with the steps 1-6. Step 6 uploads the document in my drive folder.

But when I chose the “6.File” as attachment in the step 7 I get this error. When I attach another output from step 6 there are no problems but when I attach the file it doesn’t work.

Also would want to point out that It was working fine before I applied the update for step 6. 

Thanks

Also, check the file extension type you are uploading.

Is the file uploaded in your dirve opening? and what is the file type

Hi @communitymember ,

Attaching the same document didn’t work but after seeing your suggestion on checking the file extension type, I written “pdf” in the file extention type (it was empty before) in step 6 and it worked :)

Thank you very much, I might never thought about that.

@ken.a  @Xayndro the file extension part has something I came across 3-4 years ago. I am glad that it worked
