Automatically Attach

Angie G

Is there a way to automatically attach a document to a row when a cell in the sheet has been changed or meets a certain criteria?

Example: When the status of the project is changed to In Progress, I would like to automatically attach a pdf to the row. The pdf would be the same file all of the time.

You would need to use the API or the premium add-on Bridge for this.

@Paul Newcome what would be the best way to use the API for this?

I'm not an API guy (yet but working on it), so the best I can do is give general guidance based on the documentation (link below).

I do know that you can have an API monitor a sheet and trigger on specific changes. From there it looks like there is a POST method for attachments.
