Problem with using a file to embed attachements in discord.py

This is the code that i use:

if message.attachments:
                file = await message.attachments[0].to_file()
                file.filename = 'image.png'
                embed.set_image(url='attachment://image.png')
for x in my_channels:
    webhook = Webhook.from_url(x, adapter=AsyncWebhookAdapter(session))
    await webhook.send(file=file, embed=embed)

It sends the embed to 3 channels using a webhook ( tried the normal way and still doesn't work ), the image is sent to only one channel, other ones don't have the image field. There aren't any errors but I suppose the file is somehow "not reusable" and since I need to send it separately, it's not in the saved embed. Are there any solutions to that?

From the docs

File objects are single use and are not meant to be reused in multiple abc.Messageable.send()s.

One way to fix your problem is to re-define the file inside the for loop

if message.attachments:
    embed.set_image(url='attachment://image.png')
    for x in my_channels:
        file = await message.attachments[0].to_file()
        file.filename = 'image.png'
        webhook = Webhook.from_url(x, adapter=AsyncWebhookAdapter(session))
        await webhook.send(file=file, embed=embed)
