Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Dropbox, Mailhook, 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 Mailhook integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Dropbox and Mailhook (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 Mailhook
Mailhook + Dropbox + Slack: When Mailhook receives an email, it triggers the workflow to upload the email's attachment to a specified folder in Dropbox. Afterward, a message is sent to a Slack channel to notify the team about the new file uploaded to Dropbox.
Mailhook + Google Sheets + Dropbox: When Mailhook receives data from an email, it adds the data to a new row in Google Sheets. The attachments from the email are then saved to a specified folder in Dropbox for backup and storage.
