IMPLEMENTATION

Call this tool

Connect a user's Dropbox account once, then configure and run Upload Multiple Files from your backend or agent.

import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const result = await pd.actions.run({
  id: "dropbox-upload-multiple-files",
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  configuredProps: {
    dropbox: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
    path: "Path",
    filesPaths: ["File Paths or URLs"],
  },
})

console.log(result)

SCHEMA

Inputs

Pipedream supplies the connected account. Your application provides the operation-specific values below. Dynamic inputs are resolved against that user's account.

Upload Multiple Files inputs
Property Type Description
path Path string
The folder to upload to. Type the folder name to search for it in the user's Dropbox.
Required Dynamic
filesPaths File Paths or URLs string[]
Provide an array of either file URLs or paths to a files in the /tmp directory (for example, /tmp/myFile.pdf).
Required
filenames File Names string[]
An array of filenames for the new files. Please provide a name for each URL and/or Path. Make sure to include the file extensions.
Required
autorename Autorename boolean
If there's a conflict, have Dropbox try to autorename the file to avoid the conflict.
Optional
mute Mute boolean
Normally, users are made aware of any file modifications in their Dropbox account via notifications in the client software. If true, this will not result in a user notification.
Optional
strictConflict Strict Conflict boolean
Be more strict about how each WriteMode detects conflict. For example, always return a conflict error when mode = WriteMode.update and the given "rev" doesn't match the existing file's "rev", even if the existing file has been deleted. This also forces a conflict even when the target path refers to a file with identical contents.
Optional
mode Mode string
Selects what to do if the file already exists.
Optional
syncDir SyncDir dir
Optional
