Email Attachment to a Specific One Drive Folder

[AEIILLC]

I want to use the email parser to take attachments from the email and save them into a specific one drive folder.

I have one drive folders set up for all clients. At month end they get vendor payable statements.

I have set up a client friendly email that forwards to the pabbly unique email ... no problems ...

I cannot see how to get it to save in a specific folder we have set up for our clients ...

The activity I am able to connect to one drive and a drop down lists the main folder, but it does not give me the option to
drill down to the specific folder I want ?
It also requires a file name ... and I just what the file name to be whatever the vendor called it as an attachment.

Hello @AEIILLC Please refer this video :-

and if you are unable to see folder name in the list just turn on the map button and copy the folder Id from one Drive URL.

If you are still not able to solve this on your own feel free to DM me and we can do a free zoom call. FYI I'm not from Pabbly Connect team, just a freelancer who helps other Pabbly users.

I have tried to follow the video with no luck.
Yes, I would like to connect to see if this can be done ...
Once I see the process from an email attachment, I think I can replicate it for other clients.

Could you please share a screenshot of the folder in your OneDrive account that isn't being listed? Also, try using the 'Find Folder' action to see if it provides the folder ID for the unlisted folder. You can then enter this folder ID in the 'Upload File' action step.

Well, I obviously do not understand the process of creating the workflow or see how this will work.
It seems to me like it will not do what I am expecting ...

This is what I want it to do ...
Email comes in with an attachment (will be a randomly named pdf) ...
- I have set up this part and the email parser does show it sees the attachment.
- The name of this attachment will be different every time, so it can't just look for a specific file name.

I have tried Find Folder and it seems to now find it (see image), but then what is next ?
The folder is multi-levels down in a file structure ... (see image)

When I select Upload a File, this is where it looks very confusing ...
- Select Map and entered the Folder IS from the URL
- Asking for previous step
- Asking for a File Name
- Asking for a URL

We have added a Text Formatter to your workflow to automatically extract the file name and mapped it to the 'Upload File' action step. We have also mapped the File URL in the same step. Please receive a new email attachment at the email address connected in the trigger step and check if it gets uploaded to OneDrive.
