Hi Airtable team,

I am trying to upload more than 1 file with Integromat iterator and the logic works but Airtable “kiils” the last action and uploading only 1 file.

How can i use Integromat and arrays to upload multiple files to the same field without deleting the previous ones?

Thanks!

Hi,

a) If you want to add multiple files to the current field with existing pictures - you would need to have first Retrieve a Record module and then in the Update a Record module - in the attachment field - change to “map” and in the filed use following formula:

add('image array from Retrieve Record module' ; 'new image url')  

b) if you want to add multiple pictures and the field doesn’t have anything there yet. You can just use Update Module and insert array of URL (+name) using an aggregator.

  1. You can also add multiple pictures in new rows like in the video example below and then use a Roll-up to show all of them in a single field.

I hope that helps!

I would check the format of the incoming data and the format of the data that Airtable accepts. There is a difference writing URL into a text field and into and uploading into an attachment field in Airtable.
