Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Dropbox, Volunteero, 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 Volunteero integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Dropbox and Volunteero (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 Volunteero
Dropbox + Slack + Volunteero: When a new volunteer document is uploaded to a designated Dropbox folder, a notification is sent to a specific Slack channel to alert the team. This allows for immediate review and processing of new volunteer information.
Volunteero + Dropbox + Google Sheets: When a new volunteer report is created in Volunteero, any associated files are uploaded to a specific Dropbox folder. Subsequently, the key data from the report is logged in a Google Sheet for tracking and analysis.
