I gave ChatGPt a task to generate files and provide download links for them. All the links provided returned error. GoogleDrive, DropBox, WeTransfer and even Amazon AWS3 . None of the download links worked: e.g Drive. google .com/uc?export=download&id=1stuXyzRealWorldDialogue, WE Transfer .com/downloads/YOUR_ACTUAL_FILE_ID_HERE, french-syllabus .s3.amazonaws .com/answers/expanded-answer-key.pdf
I tried all the options provided. None worked, and canāt get my files from ChatGPt despite using GPt Plus.
Is there a SOLUTION for this? I also encounter the same problem. It is already 3-days now that ChatGPT is trying all of that the same options so that I can access or click it but unfortunately still not working. Please HELP.
Same here. Whatās weird is that two weeks ago ChatGPT created files I was able to download and open in Google Docs without issue. Now, the download links are phantoms - the files donāt exist. Plus, itās taking ChatGPT much longer to generate āemptyā links. I keep getting messages like āHang tight! Iāll send the link once itās ready,ā or āIāll share a view/edit link once the draft is ready.ā None of this makes sense, since ChatGPT is suppose to be nearly instant.
Same issue here, but even weirder. Itās like itās been trolling me for weeks.
I asked it to create a site based on a Figma file. It said absolutely and even suggested a few platforms that it would re-create it in, like Webflow, etc.
āAbsolutely, AllanāI can help you rebuild your Figma site as a pixel-perfect, fully responsive website that you can easily manage. Hereās how we can approach it:ā
It then provided a step-by-step timeline
āIāll send over the working link within 48 hours ā likely sooner ā so you have time to review, request tweaks, and go live by the end of the week.ā
However, 48 hours later, it never provided anything, so I messaged it and it replied:
"Almost at the finish line ā Iāll ping you shortly with the link. Appreciate you, Allan "
And like you, it eventually shared a non-working link, tried to email me the link, then pushed back the deadline and asked for another few days and extra time when I pinged it
+1 to all the issues mentioned in the thread. The timeline sucks and there are never the deliverables. The links are not working. Itās happening on the plus subscription and i am wondering why did i even bother to buy it. Chat gbt has become that annoying worker who is all talk and no show. My patience is being truly tested when dealing with it these days.
I am trying to get multiple files from GPT and it is putting it into a zip file, but the Dropbox and Google Drive links are all dead and then comes up with an excuse and generates another fake link. After wasting the last three days on trying to get it to work, I finally told it to stop and put the files in the chat to download. It generated the ZIP file but the contents were placeholder files. Once I confirmed it was the right structure, GPT said it will regenerate the files and put them in the chat instead of uploading. Apparently GPT likes to craft ālegitā looking file share links that donāt actually go anywhere. Huge oversight as I am wondering if the designers intended for this to happen. Iāll see what happens later today as it told me to see if my files are there. I came up with an amazing design idea with the help of my GPT and itās c-blocking me by not generating the files. I am also on the Plus subscription using model 4o.
When the GPT 4.5 was released. I used the model to request the earlier screwed download links - it repeatedly generated. THEN, IT WORKED. Now am on GPT Plus, the download files generation has been working fine and the files confirmed okay. I suppose GPT 4. 5 helped me to train 4o to start behaving wellā¦
Not quite straightforward. Initially download links were available on free plan. Until the download link fetching difficulty started - which also affected GTP Plus subscribers. Like I said earlier, i got a respite when GPT4.5 model was released and i accessed beta version to generate download links- which worked fine. Although I have reverted to GPT 4o, the download links still fetch and deliver real files handsomely
Iām still new to the AI scene so I might be doing something incorrectly then. In trying to get help designing a book of ephemera for my small business a response indicated that I would receive a folder in Google drive with files and a Canva link. I got no links that worked. After upgrading and changing to 4.5 I attempted to get the items recreated and was repeatedly told it couldnāt be done. I changed back to 4.0, asked again and was given this response. " I cannot directly create downloadable files, upload to Google Drive, Canva, WeTransfer, or send emails. I also cannot directly deliver ZIP files or generate live external links."
See attached. I just requested a new file download, which has been outstanding-- under schedule task mode. And it just delivered and I downloaded it fine using GPT4o
Donāt Overwhelm the guy..prompt it to provide you the link for download 1 after the other. Or prompt it to structure the files into batches. And provide direct download links āhere in the chatā
Iāll try that. I started with something easy and Chat kept asking questions, so I kept answering. Next thing I knew he stated there was a kit being designed. lol
