How to Add a Dynamic PDF to a Submission Link via Make.com

In this guide, you will learn how to seamlessly integrate dynamic PDF files into your submission links using Make.com.

Form Builder Setup

Add a New Data Field

Go to the form builder and add a new data field. Select File Upload.

Change the field name to a descriptive name - you will use it later.

Set Field Properties

Decide whether the field should be non-editable or changeable by the recipient.

This means the customer cannot change it, which is useful for automations.

PDF Position

Choose whether to place the PDF at the beginning or the end of the template document. By default, it is placed at the end. In this example, we will place it at the beginning.

Save and Update

Save and update the form.

Make.com Configuration

Create a Submission Link

In the “Create a Submission Link” module, select the form and fill in the required data.

Advanced Settings

Turn on Advanced Settings.

File Attachments

Manually add the Field Key of the “File Upload” field. Copy and paste it from your FillFaster template form.

Add Files

You can add one or more files, such as images or PDFs. For example, a PDF from sources like Google Docs, Google Drive, file storage, and more.

Example of getting a dynamic PDF from OneDrive:

Preview the Submission Link

After creating the link, open it to preview. You will see that the PDF you added appears at the beginning of the document, seamlessly integrated with your form template. From the recipient’s perspective, it looks like a single long document, with the dynamic PDF seamlessly integrated at the start.

This should help you add dynamic PDFs to your documents seamlessly!
