Depending on your setup, data should flow between Dropbox and Contacts+ (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Dropbox and Contacts+
Dropbox + Contacts+ + Slack: When a new file is added to a Dropbox folder, the automation finds a contact group in Contacts+ and creates a shared link for the file. A message is then sent to a Slack channel, notifying the group about the new file and including the shared link.
Contacts+ + Dropbox + Google Sheets: When a new contact is added in Contacts+, the automation creates a new text file in a specified Dropbox folder with the contact's information. It also adds a new row to a Google Sheet with the contact's details.
