Help ! Stuck on sending files (privacy rules)

[d.pimentel]

Dear all,

I’m stuck on something and after 3 days of seeking, i’m gonna be crazy

Here the problem :

I have a thing on which the user insert multi files, attached to the thing:

When i try to passe one (or many files) on base64, the file is corrupted and saying that :

When the file is not “private”, there is no problem:

The action is performed on a backend workflow, with or without authentification have no impact…

Anyone have an idea ?

Thanks a lot

Check your privacy rules.

If you are using this data in back-end workflow, you can check “ignore privacy rules”

Hello Akur1,

Thanks for your feedback.

I check the rules on the WF and it’s already set like that :

This has no impact on the file.

However, when everyone can consult attached files it work but i dont want to let the file open on the web.

Another option, if you want to keep privacy rules, but need to reach the file url, you can add ?api_token=youradminapikey to the url

Thanks Jici for your feedback.

My main goal is yo send a mail through Sendgrid.

Looking the logs, i know the problem is not comming from the plugin but from Bubble when i look the logs

If you send it in base64, get the file using the api_token like I told you

Jici,

I search 3 files on a object, i transcod them on Base64 and then send data to sendgrid.

I don’t understand

I was thinking you was using a plugin to convert file into base64.
This sound strange that it doesn’t work if you follow privacy rules.
But it may be related to this topic:

Ignore Privacy Rules Backend Is Ignored?

I believe I found a way to stop the behavior in my app. At least my tests are all working now. Here is the setup that wasn’t working: Workflow 1 is scheduled on frontend: param2 (thing1) param2 (thing2) Workflow1 schedules Workflow 2. param1 (thing1) param2 (thing1’s things2[which = thing2]) Thing2 from param2 in workflow 2 had it’s field incorrectly hidden. This is the bug. I solved this by just subbing thing1’s thing2, for just the thing2 that was being originally passed. Once I did t…

Jici,

However, you helped me a lot !

With a plugin i download the file already uploaded (private), like a temporary file i use it and then i delet it.

Step 3 : i download the initial file which is private (i retrieve it with the ?api_token=youradminapikey) in order to create a new one (like a tempory file), which is not private.
Step 4 : i use the result of step 3 in base64
Sept 5 : i delet the temporary file

Not the best way but this workaround work well

Hi @d.pimentel

@d.pimentel

Bubble is not considering the “Ignore privacy rules”:

Just a shot in the dark
I had this kind of problem in the past somebody from forum (maybe @Jici he is an expert) helped me to overcome this by checking the box “Ignore the privacy rules” on the API workflow in the workflow tab on the front…

Edit: i find the problem

The Ignore privacy rules should be used in the backend AND frontend action, otherwise the option not apply
