I’m trying to use Zapier to connect Webflow and Google Forms. I want people to submit answers and I want those answers to automatically translate into CMS items. In particular, I need people to submit a picture. I can do that using Google Forms but when Zapier sends the information to Webflow, the picture is not there. Zapier actually sends a link and not a file, as the CMS’ field requests.
So, is it possible to send a picture to a CMS item using Google Forms?
There is a possible workaround using Zapier’s Formatter to change Google Drive’s link in order to create a direct download string (https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&i=[IMG_ID]) and then import that manually into your CMS Collection.
I saw a lot of questions about uploading images from Google Forms to Webflow CMS. I recently made a video that explains the whole process step-by-step using Zapier. If you’re looking for a solution, check it out here: https://youtu.be/jg32d9pGkxs
