Hi everyone!


By uploading pdf file to monday through api, the “.pdf” got converted to “.file”, is it a must? How can I keep it as “.pdf”?


Below is a reply from chatgpt, is that true?

“When you upload a file to Monday.com using their API, the file extension is not preserved and is instead changed to “.file”. This is because Monday.com stores all file attachments with a unique identifier to prevent naming conflicts and to optimize storage.”


Thanks!

Hello there @mlellison and welcome to the community!


I hope you like it here 💪


I just used the add_file_to_column method to add a pdf file into a files column and the PDF stays a PDF. You can view it and download it and it will still be a PDF.


Which method are you trying?


Looking forward to hearing from you!


Cheers,

Matias


can you please provide the code?
