Sending attachement through outlook

Hi all,

I am new here and creating my first automation.

The data comes from an Airtable, is being modified, and then PDF’d via APItemplate.io. I then retrieve the PDF via HTTP request and try to attach it to Outlook.

Everything works up till there.
I googled and searched the forums but couldn’t find the solution.

Can anyone point me in the right direction, please?

Below is the workflow I created

Thank you very much in advance,

Warm regards,

Jan

Does the file correctly show up in the output of HTTP request node? Could you share a screenshot of that? Also, what’s the file size?

Hi hrishikesh,

Thanks for the swift reply.

Here are the requested screen grabs. In both instances, I can download the PDF by pressing the download button.


I hope they help in identifying the issue.

Warm regards,

I just tested it and it worked perfectly fine:

My workflow is fairly simple:

Can you try a simple example like above to see if it works for you? Just to confirm whether it’s an n8n issue or something else altogether.

Hi hrishikesh,

I tried yours and I ran into the same issue.
I tried a Gmail account and my original method worked straight away.

However, I managed to solve it differently,
As I need to store the file anyway, I first upload the pdf onto Dropbox, then download it and email it with Outlook.

That automation works. I’m not sure why, but to be honest, as it is only for internal use, I don’t really mind.

Thank you very much for your help though.

Warm regards,

Jan
