Hi Guys,

My web hook from glide gives link to CSV file I need to be able to read the link and then create rows in Glide table.

I am able to get the link via web hook for csv file.

I am quite confused what can I do next? In Zapier we have a feature called Line Items from CSV which takes the link and gives me all line items. Is there something similar in make?

Thank you in advance for help.  
Regards,  
Dilip

Hi Guys,

I have done the necessary changes and got it to work when I run it manually.

Every time I upload a file its getting triggered in web hook but its getting into queue and getting stuck there.

Is there something I am doing wrong?

Welcome to the Make community!

If it’s a public link, you will be able to download the CSV content using the HTTP “Get a file” module.

After using the HTTP module to download the file, you can use the CSV “Parse CSV” module to extract the data.

Turn your scenario off and then on again. It will prompt you to delete all the data in the queue, or process all the older requests first.

This should get the queue unstuck.

Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.

Hi @samliew ,

Thank you soo much for the help. I figured age issue out. I had left out Get a file module

This was not able to read the link.

I got it working.

Plus the reason it was not working was because it was not Turned on.

Kindly excuse me for being dumb with issues raised. This is the first time I am using make.

Thank you for your help looking forward for more interactions.

Regards,  
Dilip
