Dropbox Overview#

The Dropbox API on Pipedream enables you to automate file and folder operations, streamlining workflows that involve storing, syncing, and sharing content. With this API, you can programmatically manage files, set up event-driven triggers based on changes within Dropbox, and leverage Pipedream's capabilities to connect with hundreds of other apps for extended automation scenarios. It's ideal for building custom file management solutions, archiving systems, or collaborative content workflows without writing extensive code.

Trigger Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Dropbox	`dropbox`	`app`	This component uses the Dropbox app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Path	`path`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Recursive	`recursive`	`boolean`	Also watch sub-directories and their contents.
	`dropboxApphook`	`$.interface.apphook`
Include Media Info	`includeMediaInfo`	`boolean`	Emit media info for photo and video files (incurs an additional API call)
Include Link	`includeLink`	`boolean`	Emit temporary download link for files (incurs an additional API call)

Trigger Authentication#

Dropbox uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Dropbox account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Dropbox and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Dropbox API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:

IP2WHOIS Overview#

The IP2WHOIS API is a lookup tool that can fetch WHOIS information for a given IP address or domain. This data includes registration details, contact information, and sometimes even personal or organization-related data of the domain owner. Leveraging this API on Pipedream allows you to create automated workflows that can enrich IP data, monitor domain registration changes, or integrate WHOIS information into security analysis. By tapping into Pipedream's capabilities, you can trigger actions based on this data across various apps and services.
