I’m getting an error when trying to attach a file either via smtp or http.
Describe the problem/error/question
I’m building an automated email that sends a reminder when an end user has not completed a process. The challenge and complexity is that i need to first check if the business has their own logo uploaded and if not, fetch a default logo. I’ve managed to solve that process with a Read file from Disk and then use an IF to go and fetch the fallback Logo. The issue is when trying to use either send email or http post that i’m unable to attach the logo. In the workflow below the logo is returned but the only way i could get the attachment to work was using the data in the attachment column.
!
But that means I cannot set the CID and the CID in the email is set to this: Content-ID: <>
If i switch to using [
{
binaryPropertyName: ‘data’,
cid: ‘logo’,
disposition: ‘inline’
}
] I keep getting the error mentioned. Any suggestions?
What is the error message (if any)?
