How to connect Atera and Dropbox
Create a New Scenario to Connect Atera and Dropbox
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Atera, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Atera or Dropbox will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Atera or Dropbox, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Atera Node
Select the Atera node from the app selection panel on the right.

Set Up the Atera and Dropbox Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Atera, Dropbox, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Atera and Dropbox integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Atera and Dropbox (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Atera and Dropbox
Atera + Dropbox + Slack: When an Atera ticket is updated, the automation archives related files in Dropbox by moving them to an archive folder, and then sends a notification to a Slack channel about the archival for record-keeping.
Dropbox + Atera + Google Sheets: This automation tracks Dropbox file sharing activities linked to Atera tickets. When a file in Dropbox is modified, the automation finds the associated Atera ticket and logs the file name, modification date, and ticket ID in a Google Sheet.
