Dropbox Integration

Hi,
My company has a website which accepts applications from potential clients. When they do so, they get an application number. If their application looks good, we might need to ask them to upload a few files to verify some information. We want to have these files sync with our Dropbox account under an application-specific folder. So for instance, if a user uploads a file called Application.doc as part of application number ABC123, we would want it to be saved to Dropbox under the folder:

Dropbox\Some Subfolders\ABC123\Application.doc

I’ve tried using the “Get Files to Dropbox” and “Dropbox Folder” apps, but it doesn’t seem like you can specify the folder dynamically, and I don’t want users to be able to browse the folder structure. Does anybody have any experience with this or have any suggestions?

Thanks very much!

Those are apps that can’t be changed or altered through Wix Corvid, you can only do what is in the settings of those apps already.

If you are thinking of doing something like that, then try looking at Dropdown’s own API and see if you can do it yourself.

Thanks, I’ve gotten it to successfully list files in various folders, but I’m having a difficult time passing files to the backend. I’ll post another thread about that since it’s a more general issue.
