Internal notification emails merge multiple file upload links into one link

Hi team,

I have a HubSpot form that allows multiple files in one upload field. A workflow sends an internal notification email that includes the form fields and the upload field via a personalization token. When a contact uploads more than one file, the email shows the file URLs combined into one long link. The result is one broken link instead of separate links.

I tested different templates, plain text sections, reinserting the token, and changing field order. Support reproduced the behavior and said it appears to be a product limitation. Their workaround was to create separate file upload properties, add them to the form, and insert one token per property in the email. This works for a small fixed number of files but does not scale.

My questions are:
Has anyone found a way to output each uploaded file as its own link in internal emails without creating multiple properties?
If not, please consider this a feature request to format values from a multi file upload as separate links, ideally one per line, in internal notification emails.

Environment details:
Forms with multiple files allowed in a single upload field
Workflow internal notification email
Using the file upload property token
Outcome is multiple URLs concatenated into one hyperlink

Thanks,

Hey @malik-waqar - thanks for posting in the Community!
I’d like to tag in some Community experts here to see what insight they may have on potential workarounds! @ArtyCele, @matt_scott, and @beeginman - any thoughts on these inquiries regarding multiple file uploads in forms?

Hey,
I’ve not come across this, it sounds like a bug that needs fixing primarily!
My first thought was can we use hubl in the field to split the links and create new links, but the internal email doesn’t have the advanced menu to allow you to edit the source code.
If you’ve got data hub (previously ops hub) you might be able to do something in a custom coded action or format data action to fix it but it would require some tinkering I imagine.
My only other thought is to link to the contact page with the field open in the side panel to make it quick to access

As you can see there’s a copy search results which gives you a direct link that you could recreate in you’re email:
This example is for acontact (0-1)
