I see the file url in my row in the editor, but can’t use any computed columns to get the file url to use to push the file to another site like cloudflare for processing. Let me know if anyone has a solution!

Can you check if a Joined List column let’s you merge the Multiple Files array into a single text string?

It does.

@Airbid you can use a Joined List column as Jeff suggests, which will convert the entire array to a comma separated string. Or you can use a Single Value column to pick any individual item from the array.
