Hi everyone,
Most things are awesome with n8n, but I just spend an entire day trying without success grabbing the gmail attachment and uploading it into Monday.com (either via an update with an attachment or via a column that accepts files).
Neither one is working. I’ve been spamming the AI + my paid ChatGPT account - no use. When I was creating the Monday item, I was losing the binary data, so I split paths and merged them together once the Monday item was created so I can reference it while having the data.
At this point I am tired, frustrated and helpless on how to actually manage this. I saw someone make it work with google drive, cool, but I need the attachments in Monday.com. I ended up creating the following workflow:
- Gmail → split out: 1) preserve attachment / 2) create monday item → merge and combine → set up a code to manipulate data → HTTP request to try and push attachment to Monday via the API (because the native Monday node to update with file doesn’t work; neither does the file column update with a file)
Did anyone manage to accomplish this? Thanks!
