How to Create a Dropbox Source Trigger and Workflow URL for File Transfer in Workflow v2?

Greetings,
I’ve been struggling for this past week to figure out how to do what I would consider to be 2 simple tasks.

Task 1. Create a Dropbox source trigger that when a new file is entered into a specific folder in Dropbox, the workflow associated with that source trigger sends some type of signal or a file to another Workflow.

Task 2. Create a workflow url, that its sole purpose is to await for a response from the workflow of the Dropbox source trigger, indicating that a file has been entered in the specific folder within Dropbox.

I’ve been working with v1, and am trying to migrate to v2. I created the Dropbox Source trigger and defined the folder where the trigger should be activated when a new file has been entered. However, when I Deploy the trigger and move a file into the folder, no activity shows up in the event logs. Yet, when I edit the workflow, the workflow shows that the file is and was available. I’m not sure what I’m missing.

I’ve also gone through the steps to create a Gitpod CDE for the development with v2, but even when I followed all of the steps from the tutorials, I still couldn’t get the Dropbox source trigger to even deploy.

Can anyone help?

Thanks,
Scott.

Can you share your trigger configuration?
I’m not able to reproduce, my trigger emits events normally on new files

Also re: Gitpod dev environment, I’m not sure about the latest state on it — do you know?

I think the source deployment from source code is an extra step you don’t need to take Scott.
