Identify the email attachment(s) whose structure matches a fingerprint.
Runs on: macOS and Windows only.
Add it to a process
In the process designer, open the Add step tab. Find Find attachment by fingerprint under Email, or type its name in the search box, and drag it onto the canvas.
Fields
| Field | Required | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Fingerprint | Yes | Baseline spec {fileType, fingerprint:{...}, gating:{rules}} - the same object a designer file block produces. Accepted as a dict OR a JSON-encoded string (the front-end stores it stringified so the value survives the Cloud FlowRunner's scalar-only step-input filter as well as the bot path). |
| Filter | No | Wildcard to pre-narrow attachments by name (e.g. '*.xlsx', 'invoice_*.pdf'). |
| Match | No | 'first' (default) returns the first conforming attachment's saved path; 'all' returns a list of every conforming attachment's path. |
| Path | No | Folder to save the matched attachment(s) to. Defaults to the bot scratch dir. |
| Variable | No | Name of the variable where the result will be stored |
