Wufoo to Dropbox PDF attachment produces corrupted file?


This Zap used to work, and now it doesn’t. 

Basically everything is working except for the fact that the file ends up not being able to be opened. It creates a file in Dropbox but the file error says “either unsupported file type of file has been damaged”

The “file” I’m choosing is Field 1. The other fields (file name / file / URL) do not produce anything.

Thank you!

Also, I did put a 1 minute pause between the Wufoo entry and the Dropbox upload steps

Hi ​@sfdavey 

Add this Zap step: Formatter > Text > Extract URL

The Field 1 value is a combo of the file name and file url.
