Overview of Dropbox#

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.

Connect Dropbox#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    dropbox: {
      type: "app",
      app: "dropbox",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    const data = {
      "account_id": `${this.dropbox.$auth.oauth_uid}`,
    }
    return await axios($, {
      method: "post",
      url: `https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/users/get_account`,
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${this.dropbox.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
        "Content-Type": `application/json`,
      },
      data,
    })
  },
})

Overview of Schedule#

The Schedule app in Pipedream is a powerful tool that allows you to trigger workflows at regular intervals, ranging from every minute to once a year. This enables the automation of repetitive tasks and the scheduling of actions to occur without manual intervention. By leveraging this API, you can execute code, run integrations, and process data on a reliable schedule, all within Pipedream's serverless environment.

Integrating Location Data into Pipedream Workflows

Over the past few months, I've become somewhat enamored with a new service called Pipedream. Pipedream is yet another serverless solution with a bit of a twist. It makes it easy to build workflows by piecing together various actions like LEGO bricks. These actions are small pieces of programming logic that cover a wide variety of different services. You can connect these actions together along with the ability to write Node code for your own logic.
