Comments
Works well to compress any files into a ZIP archive (or other format).
This action is especially useful since it’s often hard for iOS to work with multiple files – instead, you can compress them into a ZIP and move just the one file.
For every archive you make with this action, you can also extract using Extract Archive.
Try making an archive with Get File, then use Get Link to File to create an iCloud link for that new asset, then use Copy to Clipboard and paste it somewhere else immediately.
