Issue with passing files from google drive to api OCR Space

Questions
1

Im trying to build an n8n ai agent to improve my work in my business.
currently I stuck on passing file from google drive to OCR Space.

I tried to pass whole file, base64 but nothing works.
Somebody has experience with something similar?

This is my current workflow:

Information on your n8n setup

  • n8n version: Version 1.81.4
  • Database (default: SQLite): Window Buffer Memory
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main): im new, idk what I should put there
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app): Docker
  • Operating system: MacOS 18

There may be other things happening, but if the api request is correct.

One thing would be to try set the http node file parameter to “n8n binary file” instead and supply the name of the file as output by drive download. It will most likely be something like file_0 or data_0. No need to use an expression.
