I can’t seem to figure out why this zapier flow is breaking down when I’m trying to get zapier to send a direct message to a slack channel with a shareable link to a file from a previous step in the zap, any ideas?

 

Thanks for the help!

Hi @Rob Duncan 

Good question.

Try using a different link from GDrive.

The file link needs to be publicly accessible and a direct download link for the file.

You can even map the file object variable: File (exists but not shown)
