Hello I have a file upload field in my collection that i use in zapier to attach file to send a email thru zapier to my user. I want to reset (empty) the file field everytime i send out a new email.

Problem is in zapier i cant remove or blank the file field, its only adds new but in workflow noloco i can clear the field with a workflow but and trigger with a on demand action button. Problem is its going to fast becuase the workflow delete the files from the field before zapier can get the url thru a sharch step.

So perhaps ion zapier able to clear/delete a file field or in workflow add time delay for a workflow to run. Exemple if i could add a 5 minutes delay on the delete workflow this will work fine.

Or perhaps trigger a workflow in noloco from a webhook from zapier would be nice

I have find a workaround to my issue thru a bootlean that delete the data in a file filed in workflow when trigged. But it would be nice if workflow runt from webhooks and also if its possible to have time delay on some workflows

I’m glad you found a workaround @Phoenix - I was going to suggest something similar
