Sending files with Incoming Webhook

Get Help

Hi,

I have created an incoming webhook which creates a entry in GF, currently I am sending over user data which isn’t a problem but sometimes a file will need to be attached and sent then accessed from WP.

On my PHP script I have created the JSON which is sent over and added the attachment to this but I am not sure how this is going to send it, I hope that makes sense?

Below is my PHP variable encoding into JSON which is then sent to GF Incoming webhook via CURL.

$json_data = json_encode([
    // Message
    'emailSubject' => $emailSubject,
    'emailHtml' => $emailHtml,
    'emailMessageId' => $emailMessageId,
    'emailToAddress' => $emailToAddress,
    'emailFromAddress' => $emailFromAddress,
    'emailReplyToAddress' => $emailReplyToAddress,
    'emailSenderAddress' => $emailSenderAddress,
    'emailRecent' => $emailRecent,
    'emailUnseen' => $emailUnseen,
    'emailFlagged' => $emailFlagged,
    'emailMailDate' => $emailMailDate,
    'emailSize' => $emailSize,
    'attachment_1' => $attachments[0]['filename']
    

], JSON_UNESCAPED_SLASHES | JSON_UNESCAPED_UNICODE );

Hi Tom. If your form uses a file upload field for single files (not multi-file) you can base64_encode the file and send it like this:

'attachment_1' => base64_encode( file_get_contents( $attachments[0]['filename'] ),

filename here needs to be the full path to the file on the server.

If you have any other questions, please let us know.
