Setup

- 4Pick the Specific Coda Page Updated trigger and choose a report channel.
- 5Test with an updated page and two or more PDF attachments.
Questions about this workflow
Can the order be controlled?
Yes, state the intended attachment order in the automation instruction when the event exposes the files.
Does it merge non-PDF files?
This action is for PDF documents, so non-PDF attachments may need conversion first.
