Dropbox

Upload, download, list, and share files in Dropbox. In Appbricx, your workflows and server functions call it by name once it is connected.

What you can do

14 actions, each one call from a workflow or a server function. Triggers come from your app: a row changing, a schedule or a webhook.

All 14 actions with their inputs

Set it up

About two minutes, once per project or once for the whole workspace.

  1. Open Integrations in the builder

    Backend panel, Integrations tab, then Dropbox. To connect it for every project, use Workspace settings, Integrations.

  2. Sign in to Dropbox

    You sign in to Dropbox and approve access. Appbricx keeps the tokens, encrypted, and refreshes them.

    This uses an OAuth app: the platform's, or your own from the admin panel, and you can bring your own credentials.

  3. Call an action

    From a workflow, by integration id and action name. The call answers with success, output and, when it fails, the reason.

    Workflow
    // .workflow.js (native ctx)
    export async function run(ctx) {
      const res = await ctx.integrations.invoke("dropbox", "downloadFile", {
        "path": "<path>"
      });
      if (!res.success) throw new Error(res.error);
      ctx.log.info("Dropbox answered", { output: res.output });
    }

Connect Dropbox once. Every workflow can use it.
