My NWC solution starts with a form that has 3 file upload controls.

I need to get each file uploaded and using DocGen combine them for use with AdobeSign.

 

I would love to go straight to DocGen, but I realize I may have to save them to the SP Item first. However, my current hickup is that I can't wrap my head around getting them back from the SP Item, into a collection, and then getting each one from the collection into a DocGen action for use.

Leighburke, when clicking the link, we are taking to a GENERAL page, not a specific post.

​@kpope If you find a link that is not working, it could be an old link that broke due to changes, if you search the topic, it should find the correct link. Here it is

​@leighburke , I imported your example workflow, but it’s looking for a connection and fails when I try to use either my OneDrive or Google Drive connection, maybe because the example is so old? It’s telling me something went wrong, try again later.

I tried to recreate the workflow and when I do, it doesn’t have fields for the connection, so I guess that’s good? What I don’t understand is how to take my separate files and make them one. I understand using a variable for each attachment, and adding them to docgen, but I don’t get how to output them. I’m getting the error: Error processing file at index [0]. Details: File is empty.

Sure would be nice if the old Merge PDFs action from the old version existed in this version!!
