Bulk upload notes - documents not a valid filetype

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hello everyone!

I want to bulk upload notes attachments to a specific contact.

i used this template :

Title Description File Name Text Result Document Mime Type Regarding
1 Sample 1 .docx 1.docx 1.docx application/msword Test Extractor
2 Sample 2 .docx 2.docx 2.docx application/msword Test Extractor
3 Sample 3 .docx 3.docx 3.docx application/msword Test Extractor
4 Sample 4 .docx 4.docx 4.docx application/msword Test Extractor
5 Sample 5 .docx 5.docx 5.docx application/msword Test Extractor
6 Sample 6 .docx 6.docx 6.docx application/msword Test Extractor

Some of the columns are just to help me create the document name because i m uploading 1000 files.

So the upload works fine but when i try to open an attachment i get an error that the file type is not valid. I think this is something to do with the mime type although i'm not sure.

Anyone know what i'm doing wrong?

Thanks!

    Figured it out , the File Name has to include the extension type
