Airtable Attachment to google drive

In Make.com, this is what the Google Drive module would look like for uploading an attachment:

helllo

The attachment still appears to be downloading a file that I am unable to open…also, how can I download all the attachments at once?

You would have to iterate through the array of attachments to upload all of the attachments by using the Iterator module.

If you’re not able to get your files uploaded, I would recommend opening up a support ticket with them.

I think I got it now …

I used Iterator + HTTP with marge … But now I can’t choose the name of the files :frowning:

This one has been working great for me, the two keys there are
1. You will need an array agregator and then an iterator
2. Use the module upload file HTTP. You cannot send it directly from airtbale to google drive, you need to go trought that extra module in between and then you will get this option

 

Then it should be working ​​​​​​.

This is actually quite usefull, because then I  update the record in airtable with the link of google drive, delete the file automatically from airtable, and only keep the link.

Like this you will free space in airtable. 

Importante: Make free account only supports files until 5 MB if you want 100 MB then you need the CORE version.

Hope this is useful for someone in the future!

I have another post on how to solve this problem with Make’s automations at this link:

If you’ve never used Make before, I’ve assembled a bunch of Make training resources in this thread. For example, here is one of the ways that you could instantly trigger a Make automation from Airtable.

I also give live demonstrations of how to use Make in many of my Airtable podcast appearances. For example, in this video, I show how to work with Airtable arrays in Make.
