I don't think attaching an arbitrary amount of files to an email would be a good idea. What about zipping them and attaching them zipped?

Zipping them as well is fine. How can we achieve this in flowforce

There is no built-in function to zip files in Flowforce, so you would:

a) require an archiving program which can be called from the command line and is installed on the same machine as Flowforce Server. e.g. Winzip, Winrar etc

b) use the built-in shell/commandline function in Flowforce to call this program and pass it the appropriate arguments:
