I am sending an email with an attachment of an audio file I have created in Gumloop.

When I check the status in flow run, I see its correct as I see it as follows:

But the email I receive is with an attachment called “2”. I download the file, and save the file as 2.mp3 and it works. How do I attach with correct filename extension?

The flow is as follows:

Thank you for the help

Hey @pratikpoddar! 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.

Hey @pratikpoddar — Thanks for the detailed post! Just to make sure I’ve got this right—you’re receiving an email with the wrong file name? I haven’t been able to reproduce this on my end.

Could you try running the flow from the start and see if the file name still comes out differently? If it does, could you share the latest run?

Not just the wrong file name but file without .mp3 extension as well.

Thank you for sharing! Can you share the email screenshot as well please. This is what I get if I resume the flow with my email:

 ![Screenshot 2025-03-19 at 10.50.31 PM](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex027/uploads/gumloop/original/1X/780740d347018f87c912a385f5e5ccf25ccd8e40.png)

Could you also try this updated workbook instead, added Google Drive as an intermediary step: [https://www.gumloop.com/pipeline?workbook\_id=4sr8NgNHSRNLz6cSe5mgQY](https://www.gumloop.com/pipeline?workbook_id=4sr8NgNHSRNLz6cSe5mgQY)

Let me know if that works while we investigate the issue with the original workflow.

What software is that and could you try the same thing on Gmail for both the original and updated workflow? I wonder if its the platform you’re using.
