Hi team

I have managed to get the pipeline to send one file attachment, how do I get it to send multiple attachments. Have tried to follow the channel instructions but it is not clear.

Thanks

Jessica,

You have to put the Name (file name) and URL (file transfer handler) of each file on a new line.

{{a.file_name}}

{{a.file_name2}}

{{a.file_name3}}

{{a.file_transfer_handler}}

{{a.file_transfer_handler2}}

{{a.file_name_handler3}}

Hi

So just to clarify, I create the additional fields and then add those to the outlook fields on the pipeline?

And do I also have to add the fields as filters in here?

  Yes to your first question - you would need to add the additional file attachments as field to pull in your pipeline so that you can use them in later steps. You would then list each file on a new row as Manny provided.
  
  To your second question about the filter, if you add them to that filter condition and lets say you have 3 attachments, then you would need to have all 3 files present to send the email. If thats the desire then yes you would add them as conditions there. However, if you still want the email to fire if a subset of 1 or 2 files are missing then you will likely need to employ some Jinja {% if %} syntax to handle including files provided that the Pipeline will throw an error if you tell it to include a file attachment that does not exist on a record.

    Perfect all working. For the filter I just created the 3 x if statements for all three attachments.
    
    Thank you
