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)
-
Trigger: GDrive – New File in Folder (To Split)
-
Formatter (extract clean name)
-
GDrive – Create Folder (outside loop; parent = “Split PDF”)
-
PDF.co – Get PDF Info
-
PDF.co – Split PDF into Multiple Files (11 ranges) → returns Urls (line items)
-
Looping – Create Loop From Line Items (Urls)
-
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:
-
force PDF output (not ZIP) per loop URL, or
-
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!
