Is there a way to get the files automatically from Forms app into a File app folder I choose? IE my Onboarding Form has a file upload field, and I want that file to go into the client’s Files app \> a folder I made called “Onboarding Materials.” I tried Zapier (which I’m usually good at) but it feels like very convoluted data coming from Copilot with a lot of duplicates. I did figure out how to get them into my Dropbox, and I even tried a zap from DB back into copilot with no luck.
