Setting up your Dropbox Action

Upload a file

A file will be uploaded from a trigger or action that generates a file e.g. mobile/google drive/email attachment … etc. to a specified folder in the Dropbox, each time this ICApp is triggered. When you receive any file to your Google Drive/ when you share any file /photo from your mobile or when you receive email attachments, you can use this action to upload that file to a specific folder in your dropbox.
