Questions about this workflow
Does this workflow convert the attachment?
No. It uses CloudConvert's List Supported Formats action to look up available formats, engines, and options.
Can it verify every attachment's file type?
The workflow can only use file details available from the Asana event or returned data. If the file type is missing, provide it in the instruction or treat it as unknown.
