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 Code#

import common from "../common/common.mjs";
import sampleEmit from "./test-event.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  dedupe: "unique",
  type: "source",
  key: "dropbox-new-folder",
  name: "New Folder",
  version: "0.0.17",
  description: "Emit new event when a new folder is created. Make sure the number of files/folders in the watched folder does not exceed 4000.",
  hooks: {
    async activate() {
      await this.getHistoricalEvents([
        "folder",
      ]);
      const state = await this.dropbox.initState(this);
      this._setDropboxState(state);
    },
  },
  async run() {
    const state = this._getDropboxState();
    const {
      ret: updates, state: newState,
    } = await this.dropbox.getUpdates(this, state);
    this._setDropboxState(newState);
    for (const update of updates) {
      if (update[".tag"] !== "folder") {
        continue;
      }
      this.$emit(update, this.getMeta(update.id, update.path_display || update.id));
    }
  },
  sampleEmit,
};

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

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:
