Uploading a file with Make

Get Help
1

Hey guys,
Does anyone know how to get a file uploaded with Make?

2

I don’t have an example, but the Fibery API appears to support it, so it should be possible.

3

Use the HTTP module

Here is documentation how to get your api key

Here is documentation to attach a file:

Here is an example that would attach the file from URL to the database phones and in that database to the entity that has serialNumber equal to XXXX:

mutation {
  phones(serialNumber: { is: "XXXX" }) {
    addFileFromUrl(
      name: "NAME_YOUR_FILE"
      url: "URL_TO_YOUR_FILE"
    ) {
      message
    }
  }
}

Added to Make in latest release

Now you can use files in make April 16, 2026 / 🦍 Automatically link entities with more operators, Text color in rich text, Filter and sort relation selectors in Forms, Share with all users with a particular email domain

Is it posible only with a URL? Somehow, I don’t manage, I don’t have the URL, because the file it’s already a PDF in the scenario, it’s working when I send it via email, but I can not upload it to Fibery.

We made a decision to support files as URLs. It’s one of the approaches to work with files in make.

Your case can be resolved by adding additional step that will download your PDF into some service (e.g. S3, Google Drive and etc) and get public link that you can pass into Fibery.

Oh, what a pity. Only, I don’t understand why in Zapier it works and in make not? In Zapier I’m able to upload the file, through the Zap directly not through the html. The problem is that the fiel comes from PCloud, and PCloud does not have a public URL, so I have the pdf downloaded in the scenario.

I’ve extended file uploading. Now it’s possible to specify Input mode (File vs URL) and there is one more field File Data . In your scenario I suggest set mode=File and pass your raw data via File Data field

Evgeni!!! Thank you so much! If works! The only problem is that the PDF in Fibery can not be open only; it downloads automatically when I click. Also, there is no preview from the file in Fibery.

Hmm, can you share screenshot? There should be preview

13

also share your make configuration

This was happens to be a jpg, but it does the same with pdf.

17

could you try again please? I’ve adjusted mime-type related code.

Now, it does work, but only when I download the file, not when I use the path. It’s weird, because the file goes through anyway.:thinking: Anyway, I can leave with one extra step in the make scenario :wink:
