Unique rules for sending files and their usage

  • Size Limitation
    • Google email API has a limitation of 25MB per email. So, please ensure that the total file size of added attachments per email does not exceed 25MB.
  • 1 email address per 1 data source
    • If you are sending with multiple addresses, make several data sources with the setting
    • For a single data source, one email should be used with the same email input in Step 1 and Step 2-(3). 
  • Data Overwriting
    • If the attached file has an identical name with the same columns, the data will be overwritten.
    • If the files share the same columns, multiple data sources can be selected together on the table widget.
