Save and Activate the Scenario

After configuring Dropbox, Google Cloud BigQuery (REST), 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 Google Cloud BigQuery (REST) integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Dropbox and Google Cloud BigQuery (REST) (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 Google Cloud BigQuery (REST)

Dropbox + Google Cloud BigQuery (REST) + Google Sheets: When a new file is added to Dropbox, its data is loaded into BigQuery for analysis. The analysis results are then written to a Google Sheet.

Google Cloud BigQuery (REST) + Dropbox + Slack: When a new row is added to a BigQuery table based on Dropbox file data, a query is executed to detect anomalies. If anomalies are found, a Slack message is sent to a designated channel.
