Google Drive not able to pickup the Release Asset from Github Repository
Hi Folks,
I am trying to setup a Zap, which can pickup the Release APK from a Github Repository (Flutter).
I have correctly setup the Trigger (where I can view and select my repo from Git).
But, when I setup the Action, I have selected the option “Upload File” and also in the “File” field, I have given the tag “Assets Browser Download Url”, which I selected from the drop down.
When we run this Zap, the file upload is not happening. It is failing with an error “The App Returned ‘Not Found’ ".
Basically, what was happening is the “Assets Browser Download Url” for the hardcoded release number when we setup the Action. It is not picked up dynamically whenever the Release happens in the Git.
Has anyone tried this before? If yes what is the correct syntax we need to give in the “File” field.
Sorry for the intermission in my reply. I am in India and my day was over, when I was replying to you yesterday.
Coming back to the topic, you are right, it is an repo access issue. I made the repository as “Public” and it worked fine as expected. When I made it back to “Private”, it stopped working.
Please find below the screenshot:
Now, what would be the solution or workaround?
We definitely do not want to make the repo as “Public” for this automation, as it is internal to our organisation.
Kindly let me know.
Once again thanks for your excellent support so far.
Thanks

You can try using a dummy public GitHub repo to see if you encounter the same errors.
Any help and confirmation on the above question will be much appreciated.

I doubt whether this is related to access issue. Because this Zap, already have my GitHub credentials. Hence, it should have full access to this repo, even though it is Private.
Any thoughts?
Thanks.
Hi @Troy Tessalone ,
Could you please confirm this for me?
I have found 18+ people are already using this combination of apps (GitHub + G Drive Upload). I got this info based on the below link:

Seems like the issue may be related to the private repo.
Hi @Troy Tessalone
Yes. If I open the link in a different browser session, it will not work as the new browser do not have access to that repo (because it is a private repo).
Does this mean, this Zap will work only if the repo is public?
Thanks in advance?

Try clicking the link(s) in a new/different private browser. (vs a browser session where you are already logged in to GitHub)
Hi @Troy Tessalone ,
It is a private repository in GitHub.
I am able to download the file from my browser session, where I am setting up this Zap.
Please see the screenshot below:
If this is a repository access problem, then how Git is providing the URL to the Looping Step?
I am not sure how to give access to the google drive app to grab this file in the case of a private repo.
