HI Guys

I was very specific in the question subject for a reason that anyone reading this will nod, say "oh, that" and cry into a coffee. 

Im at the final step of a looooong loop of data, and I need to now put multiple public attachments into a single attachment field in Airtable. I cant use Make for this, has to be Zapier. And i need to turn a simple array into a complex array so that the attachment field doesnt overwrite.

Also, a huge thank you to @scottsworld for giving me a lot of the knowledge that got me this far without jumping off a cliff

Anyone know how to do this? I have the public URL's (that was another adventure) and the data, now I just need to make it work. 

Picture tax - a cat, searching a map. This work we are doing is for a cat charity and you all like cats. I mean, who doesnt .

Thanks for your kind words! 🙂

I don’t think Zapier natively supports complex arrays, but maybe somebody else can give you instructions on how to do it by writing JavaScript code (which can be inserted into a Zap).

For those reading this who want to do this with Make’s advanced automations for Airtable, this is the Airtable podcast episode where I explain how to do this.

Ive routed it over to make instead . . . and now Im back in iterator hell.... cant seem to splut up the array and make a complex array like magic from your video

 



 

This is going to sound ridiculous, but I made it work.

How? Dropped the links as plain URL's with a comma between them . . that was it.

Something must have changed,
