Get a file from Sharepoint -Output Variable

Hello,

 

I'm fairly new to Nintex Workflow Cloud. I'm trying to copy an existing workflow being used to copy attachments from a document library in Sharepoint to a list item in a Sharepoint list (docs are related to the list item). I can't configure the "Get File from Sharepoint" action to match how it's setup in the original workflow in Nintex Workflow Cloud. Maybe there's been an update in the platform since the original was built, but I want to make sure I'm not missing something.

 

I created a "Workflow Variable" called AttachmentFileName with a type of "File". I want to use this as the "Output" variable in the Get File action, but it won't let me. It grays out all of the workflow actions and instead wants me to create a new variable that is a Sharepoint Online variable with File type. 

 

Just trying to determine if this is due to a change that has taken place since the original was built or if there's logic that I am missing somewhere.

@ckatzThe variables used for the output of connector actions are now locked to ones created for that connector. Correct this is something that changed since you created the initial workflow.

Thank You so much!
