Files - Airtable URL Challenge

Get Help
1

We’re working with a workflow where a user uploads a .PDF ( to be filled ) into an Airtable Form with the goal of bringing that .pdf into a PDF Fill node later. The challenge is that the Airtable creates a this type of URL. Would there be a way to access the original PDF file in this workflow

Cheers,

Hey @Jude2009! If you’re reporting an issue with a flow or an error in a run, please include the run link and make sure it’s shareable so we can take a look.

  1. Find your run link on the history page. Format: https://www.gumloop.com/pipeline?run_id={{your_run_id}}&workbook_id={{workbook_id}}

  2. Make it shareable by clicking “Share” → ‘Anyone with the link can view’ in the top-left corner of the flow screen.

  3. Provide details about the issue—more context helps us troubleshoot faster.

You can find your run history here: https://www.gumloop.com/history

Hey @Jude2009 – The URL in your example seemed to have expired but this should work. The PDF fill node doesn’t support a PDF file URL directly, but you can pass in a file object dynamically. To do this, simply upload the file to Drive first, then read it from Drive – this will output the file object you can use in the AI fill PDF node. Here’s an example setup you can follow.

Let me know if this makes sense and works for you :slightly_smiling_face:
