Add the First Step

To do this, click "Choose an app," find Dropbox or Glide, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.
Add the Dropbox Node
Select the Dropbox node from the app selection panel on the right.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Dropbox, Glide, 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 Dropbox and Glide integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Dropbox and Glide (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Dropbox + Google Sheets + Glide: When a file is modified in Dropbox, its metadata and access information are added as a new row in a Google Sheet. This data is then displayed in a Glide app for audit log purposes.
Dropbox + Glide + Airtable: When a new image is added to a specific folder in Dropbox, it is displayed in a Glide app. The image details and related product information are linked to a record in Airtable for inventory management.
