0 ManokNaPula Posted October 4, 2019 Report Share Posted October 4, 2019 Hi Carioca, Like the previous comment said, File and List DataTypes are not available in triggers, but we do have workarounds. So, since I can not pass the files, what I did was to store the files on the Filestor CDN. From there I was able to get the Full path of the file by first displaying the files on a reports page. The path should look like this: https://eucdn.caspio.com/XXXXXXXX/folder_name/file_name Then using formula field, you can just concatenate the file name, from there, you can now access the files and now, you can also use it inside the trigger. Very tedious process but this worked for me. More about filestor on this link. Hope this helps. Carioca 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Kronos Posted July 11, 2023 Report Share Posted July 11, 2023 Just want to add this here. You can also set your trigger to send an email if the new record has an uploaded file or if an existing record gets updated with a new file Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
