Set up an integration action

Let's cover uploading files to your Dropbox.

Upload files

For required fields, you must select

• Folder — Choose the folder in your Dropbox that you want to upload the file(s) to.
• File(s) — Choose the file(s) you'd like to upload to the above folder.

Optionally, you may set

• Filename prefix — Set a prefix for your files.
• File Path Fragment — Set a path (i.e. a folder) for your files to go into (e.g. {{ submission_id }}/)

The two options above behave similarly, but do have a critical difference: a prefix modifies the filename while the path fragment will place the files into a folder. You can even use both at the same time.

Gotchas

• Team/ Shared folders aren't supported for use with our integration. You may only use folders that your Dropbox account owns.
