Attachments

The Attachments picker exists in More options, but files are not attached on send yet — use links instead.

Current status

Under More options you may see an Attachments control. That UI is not wired through to Gmail send today: chosen files are not attached to outbound messages.

Treat attachments as a known gap, not a supported workflow.

Until attachments ship:

  1. Upload the file to Google Drive (or any public host).
  2. Share with Anyone with the linkViewer.
  3. In the template body, use Insert link with clear text (“Download PDF”, “Open invoice”).
  4. Confirm with Send me a test email.

Same pattern as Images (links only — no embed control).

What still works without attachments

  • Personalized body merge tags
  • Preview + test email
  • Schedule send, tracking, CC/BCC columns
  • Paid pacing and remove branding

Coming later

Real file attachments (and clearer UI when they work) are on the roadmap. Until then, prefer Drive / HTTPS links in the body.
