How it works?

01

Back up important files from your business tools

Save files from your other applications directly to Dropbox in the background. Contracts, invoices, reports, and receipts are stored safely without you having to download and upload them manually.

02

Organize files into the right folders instantly

Create folder structures and move files to the correct location based on your business rules. Client files go to client folders, project documents get sorted by date or type, keeping everything organized on autopilot.

03

Share files with partners when deals close

Generate shareable links and send them to external partners, clients, or team members the moment a deal closes or a project milestone is reached. No more remembering to manually share documents after key events.

04

Sync files between Dropbox and other storage

Keep files in sync across multiple storage platforms. When a file is added or updated in one location, it's copied to Dropbox seamlessly, ensuring everyone works with the latest version.

05

Set up new project folders hands-free

Create complete folder structures for new clients or projects the moment they're created in your CRM or project management tool. Every project starts with the right organization in place.

06

Take action when new files arrive

Trigger workflows the moment a file is added to a specific folder. Notify your team, start approval processes, or copy files to other tools — all without checking Dropbox constantly.

07

Find and retrieve files on demand

Search for specific files based on name, type, or other criteria, then use them in your workflows. Pull the right documents into emails, notifications, or other systems without manual searching.

08

Keep file records up to date

Retrieve file details like size, modification date, and sharing status to update your databases or tracking systems. Maintain accurate records of what's stored where without manual data entry.

Configure

Client onboarding file system

When a new client is added to your CRM, create a complete Dropbox folder structure with subfolders for contracts, invoices, and project files. Copy the signed contract from your e-signature tool to the client's folder, and share the folder link with your team.

Invoice backup and organization

Every time you receive an invoice via email or accounting software, save it to a specific Dropbox folder organized by vendor and date. Get a Slack notification with the file details so your finance team knows new invoices are ready for review.

Deal closing document delivery

When a deal is marked as closed in your CRM, gather all relevant documents from various tools, upload them to a dedicated Dropbox folder, create a shareable link, and send it via email to the client along with a welcome message.
