Send Google Drive File as Attachment to Gmail, System Error [403]: Export Only Supports Docs Editors Files

[Chloe]

Dear Makers,

I’ve built a scenario to download files from Google Drive and send them as Gmail attachments.

The folder in Google Drive is successfully located using the Google Drive module.

However, when I try to download the files in the folder (which are mostly PDFs), I encounter a system error: [403] Export only supports Docs Editors files.

I’ve seen several posts on this kind of topic, but no one seems to be as stuck as I am.
Can anyone help me with this issue? The blueprint is attached.

Thank you!

Get rid of the / before the fileId

Hi @Mr.Make , thank you for your response. I’ve removed the /, but it’s still not working.

What is this file type then. Try going into it.

@Mr.Make The folder contains PDF documents.

I came up with a solution by adding a second “Search for File” module.

I came up with a solution by adding a second “Search for File” module.

That is odd – is the second Search for File/Folders configured any differently than the first?
