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

Depending on your setup, data should flow between Dropbox and Open Weather (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 Open Weather

Open Weather + Slack + Dropbox: This automation retrieves the daily weather forecast from Open Weather. If rain is expected, a Slack message is sent to remind the user to bring an umbrella. The forecast data is also saved to a text file in Dropbox.

Open Weather + Google Sheets + Dropbox: This automation fetches daily weather data from Open Weather and logs it into a Google Sheet. Additionally, weather maps from Open Weather (if available via a URL in the data) are saved to a designated folder in Dropbox for later analysis.
