Ability to have links to files in mail

[Matoseb]

Hi, is there a way to have a link to the uploaded files in a mail template? A client wants to access the files directly from the mail without logging in to Kirby.

I can have the file names but the field value doesn't seem to have the url inside:

if($field::type() === "file-upload") {
  $fileArray = $field->value()->value();
  echo implode(", ", array_map(fn($file) => "{$file['name']}", $fileArray));
}

You should be able to access the file object using the submision, something like $submission->valueForId($field->id())->toFile()

Ah it seems the file is in a temporary state

[{"name":"gradient_00.png","full_path":"gradient_00.png","type":"image\/png","tmp_name":"\/private\/var\/folders\/gw\/9s1_3_nn0r79dpqf536_zhk00000gn\/T\/phpBFZSjs","error":0,"size":894}]

I don't have access to the file yet, it gives me null

You're right, the game only saves the file after actions have been sent, so it's not possible to get the file URL in the Email action.

My suggestion would be to add an API route that uses the UUID of the submission and filename to find the file and return it.

100% agree, I will try this
