Zapier + PDF.co + Google Drive: getting 11 ZIPs (not one)

Goal
When a PDF lands in To Split (Drive), auto-split it into ~11 parts and save to Split PDF. I’m fine with either:

• A) one folder with 11 PDFs, or

• B) one ZIP containing the 11 PDFs.

Zap (summary)

1. Trigger: GDrive – New File in Folder (To Split)

2. Formatter (extract clean name)

3. GDrive – Create Folder (outside loop; parent = “Split PDF”)

4. PDF.co – Get PDF Info

5. PDF.co – Split PDF into Multiple Files (11 ranges) → returns Urls (line items)

6. Looping – Create Loop From Line Items (Urls)

7. GDrive – Upload File (File = current loop URL; Folder = Step 3 ID)

Problem

• Drive ends up with 11 ZIP archives (one per loop) instead of 11 PDFs or a single ZIP.

• Tried naming output “*.zip” in PDF.co Split—still only get 11 URLs (no single zip).

• Webhooks to POST https://api.pdf.co/v1/file/zip returns “endpoint not found.”

• Sometimes “Request has expired.” (S3 URL TTL?).

Ask

• How do you:

  1. force PDF output (not ZIP) per loop URL, or

  2. create one ZIP from the 11 URLs with a supported PDF.co/Zapier method?

• Any tips to avoid the “Request has expired” on Upload?

Thank you in advance for any help!
